Homemade moist chocolate banana bread, made with ripe bananas & cocoa. Made from scratch!
Hey y’all – I am on a serious banana bread recipe kick! A few days ago, I shared a recipe for homemade easy banana bread. This time around, we’re going to make homemade moist chocolate banana bread! This banana bread recipe is freaking out of this world. It’s so moist, and chocolatey! I just can’t get enough of this homemade banana bread!
What kind of bananas work best for this chocolate banana bread recipe?
A simple reminder – Only use ripe bananas for this banana bread recipe. Don’t use the pretty ones, fresh from the store. Use the ugly bananas with brown spots. Seriously, those work best!
