Triple Chocolate Banana Bread
What you need:
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1 Tbsp. cocoa powder
- 1 stick butter, softened
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 2 oz. bittersweet chocolate, melted and cooled
- 2 medium bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
Directions:
- In a large bowl (not your mixer bowl), whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder together.
- Using your stand mixer, beat butter until smooth. Add sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add egg, vanilla, melted chocolate, banana, and sour cream. Mix until combined.
- Add dry ingredients and chocolate chips and mix until just combined - you don't want to over mix.
- Pour into greased loaf pan and bake at 350* for 60 minutes. Check with a toothpick to see if it comes out clean. Cook in 5 minute increments until done. If the top starts to get dark, top with aluminum foil.
- Cool for 10 minutes in pan before removing to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
