A soft, fluffy chocolate chip banana bread inspired by the Erewhon favorite, made with added protein and simple ingredients — a cozy, bakery-style loaf you can make at home for the price of a single slice
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour OR whole wheat flour
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- pinch ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup manuka or regular honey
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (about 4 ripe medium bananas)
- 1/3 cup melted butter or melted coconut oil
- 3 tbsp milk of choice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- 1/2 - 1 cup chocolate chips + more for topping (measure with your heart)
Instructions
- Prep: Heat oven to 360°F. Line and grease a 4×8 OR 5×9 inch loaf pan.
- Make batter: Whisk together all wet ingredients in a large measuring jug. Combine all dry ingredients well in a large mixing bowl. Add the wet to the dry ingredients and fold JUST until combined (use a spatula or wooden spoon, NOT a whisk for combining the batter!). Fold in chocolate chips
- Bake: Transfer batter to prepared pan & top with more chocolate chips. Bake in hot oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out just clean. Cool in pan on a cooling rack for 10 minutes, then remove carefully, peel off baking parchment and cool completely on cooling.
