    You know those bananas that are starting to brown, and the texture is too mushy to eat as a whole? They are perfect for using in banana bread and other baked goods! All it takes is a fork and bowl and the ability to mash and smash the fruit until it is smooth. That part is my kid’s favorite thing to do when we make this Chocolate Banana Bread, Gluten-Free Eggless Banana Bread and Gluten-Free Banana Nut Bread.

    Super ripe bananas give banana bread an incredible amount of moisture and natural sweetness from fruit (check out how to ripen a banana). Meaning you do not need tons of extra sugar to sweeten quick breads when 3 bananas are in it! A bonus is, bananas are packed with potassium which helps regulate fluid balance in the body.

    The recipe can also be transitioned into a dairy-free chocolate banana bread version. Just swap out regular chocolate chips for dairy-free chocolate chips.

    How to make gluten free chocolate banana bread

    1. Start by mashing 3 very ripe bananas in a bowl. Using a fork press down to mash the banana then whip together with the fork until it becomes smooth.
    2. In the same bowl, add the wet ingredients and sugar ** except the coconut oil **. Add in the eggs, dairy-free milk or regular milk, vanilla and coconut sugar and whisk it together to combine. Set it aside while you mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
    3. In a larger bowl combine the dry ingredients. Add the gluten free flour mix, tapioca flour, unsweetened chocolate cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips.
    4. Combined the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and start to mix then add in the melted coconut oil. Make sure the coconut oil is not too hot, just melted or slightly warm to touch.
    5. Bake it at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let the chocolate banana bread cool before slicing and if serving the next day, heat it slightly before enjoying.

    Chocolate banana bread is a favorite treat that we love to enjoy for breakfast, snacks or dessert. This one is made with wholesome gluten-free flours, chocolate cocoa powder, bananas and is bursting with melted chocolate morsels. It is a healthier version that any other, yet still encompasses incredibly moist and delicious flavors! I highly recommend reheating it right before eating for the best taste😊.

    • In the same bowl add the eggs, milk, vanilla and coconut sugar. Whisk together to combine and set aside.
    • In a larger bowl add the gluten free flour, unsweetened chocolate cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips and mix to combine.

    Notes

    Make sure the coconut oil is added while mixing everything together, otherwise it may harden if mixed with the cold and wet ingredients. 
    If you want to go dairy free you can use dairy free chocolate chips.
