Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Recipe Description

This Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is perfectly moist, flavorful and plant-based. Overripe bananas deliver an intense banana flavor and tender crumb, while the chocolate chips bring a rich and decadent taste to the bread. It is a match made in baking heaven!

A few tips: To ensure your banana bread easily comes out of the pan after baking, grease and line the pan with parchment paper. This recipe calls for nut butter. I have used peanut butter, but you could use any nut or seed butter you’d like, or even tahini. Ground flaxseed with a bit of water takes the place of eggs here, binding the batter and delivering nutritional benefits, too. To activate the flaxseed, just combine two tablespoons of ground flaxseeds with five tablespoons of warm water. Stir well and leave to gel up for 10 minutes. This is your flax egg. Now you are ready to proceed with the recipe.

To make the Chocolate Chip Banana Bread, you will need the following ingredients:
