Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Add the sugar, almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Slice and serve as is, or with a dusting of powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
