Servings: 10 slices
Calories: 181kcal
Equipment
- Standard loaf pan
Ingredients
- 4 very ripe large bananas (about 480 g)
- 2 eggs sub egg replacer
- 1/4 cup any yogurt (56 g) I use 2% greek yogurt, you can use plant-based
- 2 tbsp any oil (30 g) I use melted coconut oil
- 2 tbsp maple syrup (42 g) sub honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups flour (210 g) gf all purpose if desired
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder (24 g)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F and grease a 9×5 loaf pan (8×4 might work too).
- Blend mashed bananas, eggs, yogurt, oil, maple, vanilla extract in a food processor/blender/hand mixer or mix by hand thoroughly.
- Whisk together flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda and baking powder.
- Combine wet and dry, folding gently until all dry crumbs disappear (do not overmix). Pour half the batter into the loaf pan.
- Sift the cocoa powder into the rest of the batter, fold gently until combined.
- Pour the rest of the batter into the pan. You can up the marble game by doing alternating scoops of batter, but I was lazy.
- Bake for about 60-75 minutes until a thin knife comes out mostly clean with just a few crumbs attached.
- Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, turn it out onto a rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
