Why You’ll Love This Eggless Chocolate Banana Bread

Easy to make: No mixer needed—just a bowl and a whisk
Egg-free: Great for allergies or when your egg carton is empty
Moist and tender: Thanks to olive oil and mashed bananas
Rich in flavor: A perfect balance between banana and chocolate
Next-day delicious: The flavor improves after resting overnight

Ingredients You’ll Need

• 4 overripe bananas (400–500g)
• ¾ cup brown sugar (160g)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ⅓ cup olive oil (80ml)
• ½ cup whole milk (125ml)
• 1½ cups all-purpose flour (180g)
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (20g)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 115g dark chocolate, chopped (or 1 cup chocolate chips)

Ingredient Notes

Bananas: The darker and spottier, the better. Overripe bananas bring sweetness and moisture.
Chocolate: Use a bar of dark chocolate for chunkier, meltier bits. Chips work too but don’t melt the same way.
Flour: All-purpose flour keeps the texture soft. You can do half wholewheat if you want a bit more bite.
Oil: Extra virgin olive oil adds flavor, but any neutral oil will work.

How to Make Double Chocolate Banana Bread Without Eggs

1. Prep your pan and oven
   Preheat to 175°C (350°F). Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang.
2. Mash the bananas
   In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
3. Add wet ingredients
   Whisk in brown sugar, vanilla, and olive oil. Then add the milk and whisk again until well combined.

4. Mix in the dry ingredients
   Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Fold gently with a spatula just until the batter is smooth. Don’t overmix.
5. Add chocolate
   Stir in most of the chopped chocolate, saving a bit for topping.
6. Bake
   Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate on top. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs.

7. Cool and slice
   Let the bread cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Tips for Success

• Use overripe bananas for best flavor and sweetness
• Don’t overmix the batter—it can make the bread dense
• Let it cool completely before slicing to keep the loaf from crumbling
• Store it overnight—it’s even more delicious the next day

Storage and Serving Ideas

At room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
In the fridge: Keeps well for up to a week.
In the freezer: Slice and wrap each piece, then freeze for up to 2 months.

Serving suggestions:

• Toasted with a bit of butter
• Warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream
• Cold straight from the fridge (yes, it’s still moist!)
• With a hot cup of coffee or a chai latte
