Ingredients

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup wholewheat flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 large ripe bananas mashed
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten
  • 110 gm butter melted and cooled
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1/2 cup walnuts chopped
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips I used Hersheys

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Grease and flour a large loaf pan and set aside. I used two small loaf pans as seen in the picture.
  • Combine all the dry ingredients - flours to salt in a bowl and whisk well.
  • In another bowl, combine the banana, butter, eggs and vanilla essence.
  • Pour this over the dry ingredients and whisk well till combined. Add in the walnuts and chips and fold in well.
  • Pour into the prepared loaf pan or half each into the loaf cases.
  • Bake 50 to 60 minutes till skewer comes out clean in case of a large loaf pan - do not forget to cover the top with foil after 40 minutes of baking. For the small loaf pans, I baked for 35 minutes.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then flip onto a cooling rack. Cool completely before slicing and enjoying them with a cup of coffee!
