Time 1h10m

Yield 8 1-inch slices, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup mashed very ripe banana
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/3 cup almond milk (or your preferred non-dairy milk)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
6 tablespoons boiling water, divided

Steps:

  • Prepare boiling water, no need to measure yet. Also, preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Mash the banana in a large mixing bowl until relatively smooth. It should take 3 average sized ones, but spoon the mashed 'nanas into a measuring cup to make sure, then return to the mixing bowl. Beat in the sugar, canola oil, milk and vanilla.
  • Now add the flour, baking soda and salt and gently mix just to incorporate. It's okay if there is some flour still visible, just be careful not to overmix at this point.
  • Scoop one cup of the batter up and transfer it to a separate mixing bowl. Now, in a small tea cup mix the cocoa powder with 3 tablespoons boiling water and stir vigorously with a fork until the chocolate is dissolved. Add this chocolate mixture to the one cup of banana and mix until the chocolate is thoroughly smooth and incorporated.
  • Now back to the original plain banana batter; add 3 tablespoons of boiling water and mix the batter just until relatively smooth. (Unless your batter is already moist enough, then skip the extra water.).
  • Here comes the fun part, it's time to marble! Lightly grease an 8×4 loaf pan. Scoop alternate 1/2 cupfuls of chocolate/banana batter into the loaf pan. Nothing has to be precise here, in fact, the more random, the better. Once all of the batter is in, take a butter knife and swirl it through the batter in circular directions for about 10 seconds.
  • Bake for 55 minutes. Use a butter knife to test for doneness. Let cool and enjoy!

I created this recipe using my favorite parts of many different recipes. This bread isn't very sweet, so it's not for those who enjoy a sweeter bread. The chocolate throughout makes this a beautiful bread to entertain with.

MARBLED CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD

For a light, tender crumb, be careful not to overmix the batter after adding the flour. Once all of the ingredients are mixed together, put in oven right away. If it sits for too long, the soda will start to lose its leavening power--so work quickly when melting chocolate. Discovered this delight in Cooking Light (low-fat version).

CHOCOLATE MARBLED BANANA BREAD RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Chocolate Marbled Banana Bread Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by hwasilewski

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large eggs, room temperature
5 tablespoons coconut milk
1/4 cup applesauce
2 tablespoons coconut oil
2 very ripe bananas, mashed
2 cups Gluten Free Flour Mix
3/8 cup agave
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 - 1/2 cup GF,DF chocolate chips, Melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° Combine eggs, milk, applesauce and oil in mixer. Beat well to combine. Add bananas, mixing to combine. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients, whisking to ensure they have mixed well. Slowly add dry ingredients into the mixer with the wet ingredients. Scoop 1 cup of the batter into a small bowl and mix it with the melted chocolate chips. Mix until combined. Scoop the two batters into a greased loaf pan, alternating. Run a knife through the batter to create a marbled effect. Bake at 350° for 50-60mins, or until cooked through.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be. If you don't have any ripe bananas on hand, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or pear for a few days.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make your banana bread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the banana bread at a moderate temperature. A moderate temperature will help the banana bread bake evenly without burning.
  • Check the banana bread for doneness with a toothpick. Insert a toothpick into the center of the banana bread. If it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached, the banana bread is done.
  • Let the banana bread cool before slicing and serving. This will help the banana bread hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

This chocolate marbled banana bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It is also a great way to use up overripe bananas. With its moist, flavorful crumb and rich chocolate marbling, this banana bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
