Upgrade your go to banana bread with this one stuffed with chocolate chips and vegan fudgy bites!
The world made a beeline for banana bread this year when we went into lockdown, and I can see why, it's so simple and moreish It's versatile, makes a cracking snack or even breakfast if you will so let's not stop there with just the classic recipe. I love making variations of banana bread, there's always extras you can add here and there, and with this recipe I went for chocolate chips. It' nice to have a bit of texture in banana bread and the wonderful people at Buttermilk sent me their Vanilla Fudgy Bites - a vegans dream when you can't get your hands on good dairy-free fudge, these really hit the spot. They made a lovely addition to this recipe and I urge you to get your hands on a bag :)

Recipe
Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 40-45 minutes
Serves: 10
Ingredients
225g Plain flour
100g Light brown sugar
50 Caster sugar
90ml Vegetable oil
1 tsp Baking powder
Pinch of salt
3 Ripe bananas
100g Vegan chocolate chips
Topping optional
Melted vegan chocolate
More chocolate chips
Method
✿Preheat the oven to 180℃ and line a 2lb loaf tin with baking paper, enough so that it is hanging over the edge - so you can lift it out of the tin easily.
✿In a bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth or blend in a blender - I found it gives a smoother texture in a blender but by hand works just as well.
✿In a separate bowl, whisk the sugars with the oil then add the bananas and mix.
✿Sift in the flour, baking powder and salt and combine. Fold through the chocolate chips and fudge bites and then spoon the batter into the prepared tin.
✿Bake in the oven for 35 minutes then cover with foil and place in the oven a further 5-10 minutes until a knife inserted comes out clean.
✿Leave to cool in the tin completely before removing onto a cooling rack. I melted a few squares of chocolate and drizzled this on top and then topped with more chocolate chips and fudge bites. Best kept at room temperature in an airtight container. Enjoy!
