This recipe is an adaptation of my mom's banana bread recipe. We had a long morning at the pool and Miss F was in no mood for napping. So we baked banana bread...Miss F style. She is happy to help me bake, especially if she gets to snack on chocolate chips while doing so. And with this recipe, not only did she get chocolate chips, she also got a bowl of applesauce to eat as well. A toddler's dream! This recipe is especially nice because you don't have to drag out the mixer. I just measure the wet ingredients in a 4 cup measure and give it a whir with my immersion blender. That is the only thing that Miss F didn't do in making this bread, it really is that easy. |
1 ½ cups flour
¼ cup cocoa powder
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup sugar
1 ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
2 eggs
¼ cup natural applesauce
¼ cup canola oil
2 over ripe bananas
¾ cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, sift the first six ingredients together. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, applesauce, oil and bananas on medium speed until well combined. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until well combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Grease a 9”x5” loaf pan and fill with the batter. Bake for 45 minutes, let cool before slicing.

This looks delicious, I have 3 bananas on my counter right now that might be destined for this!
Great picture! This looks really good!
I am loving recipes right now that don't require the mixer and the kids can help. This looks amazing.
Haven't found a banana bread recipe I'm in love with yet. Will definitely try this one!
This sounds like an amazing banana bread! Levi is finally getting to the age where he can "help" me bake so I hope to try this soon!
