Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until they are smooth and there are no large lumps remaining.
Add the coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir well to combine.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, sea salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined - do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts (if using) into the batter, distributing them evenly throughout.
Pour the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Transfer the loaf onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
