Equipment
Junior loaf pan or muffin tin
Ingredients
2
ripe bananas, mashed
(about 240 g)
3
tbsp
oil/yogurt or a mix
(42 g)
3
tbsp
sugar
(36 g) add 1-2 more tbsp if you would like this to be a dessert
1/4
tsp
vanilla extract
3/4
cup
flour
(90 g) gf all purpose if desired
1/2
tsp
baking soda
1/4
tsp
baking powder
1/8
tsp
salt
1/2
tsp
ground cinnamon
Easy chocolate ganache
1
tbsp
nut/seed butter
(16 g) I used tahini, if your nut butter is very thick microwaving a little will help
1
tbsp
maple syrup
(21 g)
1-2
tsp
cocoa powder
adjust to desired darkness
1
tbsp
(nut) milk
adjust to desired thinness
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F and line a standard loaf pan with parchment.
In a large bowl blend together bananas, oil/yogurt, sugar, vanilla.
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt.
Pour dry into wet and combine via folding, do not overmix.
Pour into loaf pan and bake about 40-50 min until a knife inserted comes out mostly clean.
While your bread cools, whisk together nut butter, maple syrup, cocoa powder and use enough milk to thin it to desired thickness.
Once the bread is completely cool, pour on the ganache and let it set.
Slice and enjoy! I keep my leftover slices refrigerated.
Notes
Here’s a link to the
junior loaf pan
I like to use.
If baking as muffins, bake 20-23 min for regular sized.
For max freshness you can freeze baked slices without the ganache in a ziplock bag and thaw overnight in the fridge.
Nutrition info is based on using 3 tbsp oil.
