Chocolate Banana Bread

unnamed (69)

I love this recipe.

I found it online from Once Upon A Chef.

She has some fabulous recipes.

I loved it because I hate to melt chocolate and this recipe uses real unsweetened cocoa powder not Dutch processed.

1 1/4 cups flour

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 stick unsalted, room temperature butter

1 cup sugar

2 large eggs

2 to 4 bananas about one cup

1/2 cup sour cream or yogurt

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 cup semi sweet or dark chocolate chips.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees

Grease a 9 x 5 pan with cooking spray

Combine the flour, salt, baking soda and cocoa till it is mixed well

Beat the butter and sugar till it is pale and fluffy

Add the eggs, one at a time

Add the vanilla

Add the dry ingredients

Add the bananas and sour cream

Beat till everything is combined well about 2 minutes

Fold in the chips

Pour into the pan and bake for 70 minutes.

I used two disposable aluminum pans to make two smaller breads.

I just changed the recipe a little because I always do that.

I have never made anything from Jennifer Segal but I am now a loyal follower.
