Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Butter a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line the bottom and sides with parchment paper, leaving some parchment hanging over the sides to help remove the bread later. Set the pan aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until they are combined. Set this mixture aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, melted butter, oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add your dry ingredients and the chocolate chips to the wet ingredients. Fold everything together until it is just combined. Avoid over mixing the batter.
- Pour the banana bread batter into your prepared loaf pan. Spread the batter into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top surface.
- Bake the banana bread in the center of your preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a skewer into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
- Cool the banana bread in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes. Use the parchment overhang to lift the bread out and place it onto a wire rack. Allow it to cool completely before you slice and serve it.
