Chocolate, Banana and Coconut Bread

  • Full of decadent chocolate flavour
  • Moist
  • Easy to make

Chocolate, Banana and Coconut Bread

Ingredients needed to make this Vegan banana chocolate bread:

  • Bananas, make sure you use really ripe bananas. Those black spots are your friends and makes sure these cookies turns out sweet and delicious.
  • Flour, I use organic all purpose flour. Can be substituted with white wholewheat flour or gluten-free flour for baking to make it gluten-free.
  • Cocoa powder, I use good quality and unsweetened
  • Baking powder and baking soda
  • Coconut milk, can also be substituted for another plant based milk like, soy or almond milk.
  • Apple cider vinegar 
  • Coconut sugar, the slight caramel flavor goes so well with the chocolate in this recipe. If you don’t have coconut sugar you can substitute for brown sugar
  • Coconut oil, my go to when baking vegan. Substituted for another neutral tasting oil like avocado or sunflower oil.
  • Pinch of salt, I always add a little salt to everything chocolate. It really brings out the chocolate flavour 
  • Vegan chocolate chips or chocolate bar chopped. I use a good quality dark chocolate.

How to make this cake:

Start by preheating your oven and brushing a bread pan with a little coconut oil. You can also dust with a little cocoa powder or shredded coconut for an extra coconut flavour.

Stir together the mashed bananas, coconut milk, vinegar, coconut oil and sugar in a bowl.

Sieve in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and soda and the salt. Fold in the dry ingredients until just combined and then gently fold in the chocolate chips. Pour the batter in the prepared pan and bake for about 40 minutes, depending on your oven. Let the bread cool before removing it from the pan.

Mix together the rest of the chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon coconut oil and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir and then heat for a sew seconds more if its not completely melted. Top the chocolate bread with the melted chocolate and let the chocolate set before serving.

Keep the cake in an airtight container for a few days.

Enjoy!

    I’m confused by the chocolate chips. You say divided but don’t explain what proportion should be folded into the batter and what portion should be melted for the top.

      Hi Sherri,
      Sorry about that, should be divided in half. Half for the cake batter and half for the topping.
      I hope you enjoy the recipe!
