To get started with this recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can have chocolate walnut banana bread using 10 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Chocolate Walnut Banana Bread:
- Make ready 2 cups all purpose flour
- Get 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Get 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Get 1/2 cup butter (room temperature)
- Prepare 3/4 cup light brown sugar
- Make ready 2 eggs
- Get 3 large very ripe bananas (don't mash until ready to mix)
- Get 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- Make ready 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- Get 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Steps to make Chocolate Walnut Banana Bread:
- Preheat oven to 350° & spray a glass 9×5 loaf pan with non stick spray.
- In a large bowl sift together all the dry ingredients except walnuts (flour, salt, baking powder, and cocoa.) I sifted mine 3 times. This will ensure all your ingredients mix well and you won't overwork the batter.
- In a separate bowl use a hand mixer to blend all the wet ingredients until smooth (eggs, butter, vanilla, and brown sugar.) Set aside and mash your bananas with a fork (a few chunks are ok.) Once mashed combine bananas with the wet ingredients. Add the walnuts and give a quick stir.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet. I recommend doing this in batches. I did 4 batches, gently folding each with a spatula. Stir just enough to combine. You don't want to overwork the batter because it will result in a dense bread. Pour into prepared dish and place on center rack in oven.
- Bake at 350° for about an hour. Check for doneness by inserting a small knife or a wooden skewer into the center. It's done if it comes out clean. Ovens vary so cooking time may be a little different.
- Remove from oven and let cool in pan for 30 minutes. After that remove from pan and cool for another hour on a rack.
