Triple Fudge Banana Bread.
I did just say TRIPLE FUDGE. You heard correctly.
But this has like, tons of bananas.
So it’s practically a health food.
Definitely a breakfast food.
Absolutely an eat-right-this-minute food.
Aren’t you glad you have me in your life to make decisions like that for you?
I am too.
Triple Fudge Banana Bread
makes one loaf (or about 3 mini loaves)
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 large bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/4 cup milk
4 ounces dark chocolate, melted
3/4 cup milk chocolate chips + 1/2 teaspoon flour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a loaf pan (mine was 9×5) liberally with non-stick spray or grease with butter. In a bowl, mix together flour, cocoa, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and baking powder, then set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk egg and sugar together until smooth. Whisk in vanilla extract, then add bananas and milk and mix until combined. Add in dry ingredients slowing, mixing with a spoon until batter comes together. Add in melted butter and mix until incorporated, then stir in melt chocolate.
Toss chocolate chips with 1/2 teaspoon to coat, then fold into batter. Pour batter into loaf pan. Set pan on a baking sheet, then bake for 55-60 minutes, or until center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove bread from over and sprinkle with additional chocolate chips if desired. Let cool completely (1-2 hours) before cutting.
If you’re also wondering if the cookies on your counter are a breakfast food, you are right. See? I have all the answers.

I think I love you.
No, I know it. I love you. <3
I just made this and the batter was so amazingly delicious that I purposefully reserved about 1/4 cup to eat while I cleaned the kitchen.

So sometimes, when things are slow at work, I “use my time wisely” by looking up recipes to try when I have my own kitchen.
And more often than not, I find myself at your website and get more and more excited by the second.
I almost cried with joy after reading this one.
I know what I’m making the very second I finish moving into the new place!
Or, more likely, as I’m moving and sorting and storing, these things will be baking so I’ll be surrounded by the smell of chocolate with chocolate on chocolate baking in my oven.
Ahh.. Paradise!

I just made this, and waited only long enough for it to cool off slightly before cutting myself a huuuge piece! It turned out amazingly — thankyou for the recipe! I don’t know what whole wheat pastry flour is, so I just used regular whole wheat flour, and it’s still yummy. The triple-chocolate masks all the banana quite well ;) (not a huge fan of bananas in baked goods, but I needed to use up the ones that got mushy in my kitchen.) Thanks again for a ROCKING recipe.
You are my hero. This bread is crazy delicious. I may or may not have made it into french toast this morning… Cue a sugar coma before 9 a.m. It was well worth it ;) Thanks again!

Hello! I just wanted to leave you a comment letting you know that I tried this recipe last night, and. OH. MY. GAWD. IT WAS AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for sharing your unique twist on the classic banana bread recipe. It wasn’t the easiest baking recipe (I had to constantly dash between my Cuisinart mixer and my microwave), but it was all VERY rewarding at the end.
Hi , can we use all purpose flour instead of whole wheat pastry ..as i dont have that available? Thnx
