Healthy Chocolate Banana Bread

This healthy chocolate banana bread is truly one of my favorites. This bread is filled with so much flavor that it’s hard to believe that it’s healthy!

We’re so excited to share this recipe with you, this is definitely how you spice up a banana loaf! For this recipe we used wholemeal flour instead of plain flour and it tasted amazing!

Wholemeal flour is a healthier alternative to plain white flour as it is richer in fibre. The natural nutrients found in plain flour are stripped away once it is refined. So if you are looking for a healthy chocolate banana cake recipe try this!

How To Make Healthy Chocolate Banana Bread

1. Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4 and lightly grease a loaf tin with sunflower oil.
2. Add sunflower oil, eggs, mashed bananas, vanilla extract and almond milk to a large bowl and whisk well.
3. Add wholemeal flour, cocoa powder, caster sugar, baking soda and salt to another bowl and mix well.
4. Add flour mix to the egg mix and use a large spoon to mix all the ingredients together until smooth.
5. Pour the cake batter into the loaf tin and place each half of the sliced banana on top (as pictured). Bake for 50-55 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
