Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your Chocolate & Caramelised Banana Bread:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Prepare Bananas: In a bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth but still slightly chunky.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk until well combined, then add the eggs, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas. Mix until smooth.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not over-mix.
6. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution throughout the batter.
7. Pour into Pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
8. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
9. Cool: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Drizzle Caramel Sauce: For an added touch, drizzle caramel sauce over the cooled banana bread before slicing.
