Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan, preferably glass.
• Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Stir bananas, milk, and cinnamon in another bowl. Beat butter and sugar in a third bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs to butter mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir banana mixture into butter mixture. Stir in dry mixture until blended. Fold in chocolate chips until just combined. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 70 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix eggs, bananas, oil and milk in large bowl until blended. Add flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Stir in chocolate and nuts.
• Pour into greased and floured 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Bake 55 min. or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool bread in pan 10 min.; remove to wire rack. Cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• In a bowl, add the bananas and mash until smooth. Add in the melted butter and stir until well combined.
• Add the sugar, egg, vanilla, baking soda, salt, and flour, and stir until the batter is smooth.
• Add in the chocolate chips and pour the batter into a greased loaf pan. Top with additional chocolate chips.
• Bake for 50 minutes to an hour, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
• Cool completely before serving.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
• In a large bowl, mash the bananas coarsely using a fork. They should be fully broken apart, but it's OK if some larger lumpy pieces remain. Whisk in the melted butter, yogurt, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until well combined.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt to combine. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and stir to combine using a silicone spatula or wooden spoon. Scrape the sides and base of the bowl well to make sure the mixture is uniformly combined.
• Gently stir in the chocolate until combined, then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread into an even layer. If using, sprinkle the surface generously with coarse sugar.
• Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the edges of the loaf start to pull away from the edge of the pan, and a tester inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 60 to 75 minutes. If the top of the loaf is becoming too dark before it's baked through, loosely cover with foil.
• Transfer from the oven to a cooling rack and run a thin knife around the edge of the banana bread to separate it from the pan. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before unmolding and cooling completely.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• In small bowl, mix oat flour, baking cocoa, xanthan gum, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• In large bowl, beat butter and sugar with electric mixer on medium speed 3 to 5 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally, until fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, just until smooth. Beat in bananas, buttermilk and vanilla. Stir in oat flour mixture and chocolate chips. Pour into pan.
• Bake 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (take care not to insert toothpick in chocolate chip). Cool 5 minutes in pan. Loosen sides of loaf from pan; remove from pan, and place top side up on cooling rack. Cool completely, about 2 hours, before slicing. Wrap tightly, and store at room temperature up to 4 days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
• In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition. Stir in the mayonnaise and bananas. Stir together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Blend the flour mixture into the banana mixture; stir just enough to evenly combine. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 50 to 75 minutes. Cool loaf in the pan for 20 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula. (Alternatively, use a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water.) Flip a sheet pan upside-down, spray it with nonstick baking spray, and line it with parchment paper. Using an offset spatula, spread the melted chocolate in an even layer over the parchment paper. Place in the freezer to set, 30 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine water and flax meal. Set aside to thicken, 30 minutes and up to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl: both flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
• Put the bananas and vanilla extract in a plastic deli container, then purée with an immersion blender, 30 seconds. Add the puréed banana to a large mixing bowl along with canola oil, apple cider (or orange juice), the flax mixture, and the sugar. Stir to combine. Add the dry ingredients and stir just to combine, until there's no visible flour. Stir in the chopped pecans.
• Pull chocolate from the freezer and break it up into shards. Using a rubber spatula, fold the shards into the batter. The folding motion will further break up the chocolate, which is okay.
• Spray a standard loaf pan with nonstick baking spray. Scrape batter into the pan and smooth out the top. Tap the pan on a hard surface to settle the batter. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle on top of the batter. Bake 1 hour.
• Banana bread is done when a cake tester comes out clean. Let cool completely in the pan, then run a knife around the edge, invert onto a plate, slice, and serve.
