Ingredients of Chocolate Walnut Banana Bread


  1. 2 cups all purpose flour.
  2. 1 teaspoon baking powder.
  3. 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt.
  4. 1/2 cup butter (room temperature).
  5. 3/4 cup light brown sugar.
  6. 2 eggs.
  7. 3 large very ripe bananas (don't mash until ready to mix).
  8. 1 tablespoon vanilla extract.
  9. 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
  10. 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.


Chocolate Walnut Banana Bread step by step



  1. Preheat oven to 350° & spray a glass 9×5 loaf pan with non stick spray..
  2. 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..
  3. 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..
  4. 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..
  5. 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..
  6. Remove from oven and let cool in pan for 30 minutes. After that remove from pan and cool for another hour on a rack..
