Almost every week I make banana chocolate chip muffins because they are my kids favourite type of muffin. It get’s kinda boring sometimes so I sometimes make a banana chocolate chip cake instead. Hey why not switch it up a little? Right? We go through a lot of bananas at my house! That’s ok though because these energy powerhouses have many health benefits such as containing potassium, fiber, vitamin C, B Vitamins, iron, they are a mood enhancer, and are good for the heart and nerves. I incorporate bananas in a variety of ways from my morning smoothies, muffins, and in hot breakfast cereals and oatmeal. 🙂

Here is my super easy recipe for Banana Chocolate Chip cake …

 

 

Banana Chocolate Chip Cake

 

You will need:

• 3 medium-sized bananas
• 1/4 cup coconut or sucanat  sugar
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 1/3 cup mini vegan chocolate chips, or regular sized vegan chips
• 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup brown rice flour
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk

 

Method:

 

1. Preheat your oven to 400 F
2. Mash your bananas in a medium-sized bowl.
3. Add the coconut oil and sugar to the mashed bananas.
4. Next add the vanilla extract and give it a good mix.
5. In a large bowl add the brown rice flour and baking powder and mix well. I use a fork to make sure my baking powder is incorporated well.
6. Add the wet ingredients into the dry and also add in the almond milk into the bowl.
7. Combine well and add the vegan chocolate chips to the mixture.
8. Grease a baking pan with coconut oil and add the mixture into the dish. Even it out and pop it into the oven.
9. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, ovens vary.
10. Once baked allow the cake to cool completely before slicing it!

 

That’s it! Very easy and fast to make!

Enjoy!
