To get started with this recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can have chocolate walnut banana bread using 10 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

The ingredients needed to make Chocolate Walnut Banana Bread:
  1. Prepare 2 cups all purpose flour
  2. Take 1 teaspoon baking powder
  3. Take 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  4. Make ready 1/2 cup butter (room temperature)
  5. Make ready 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  6. Make ready 2 eggs
  7. Prepare 3 large very ripe bananas (don't mash until ready to mix)
  8. Get 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  9. Take 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  10. Prepare 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Steps to make Chocolate Walnut Banana Bread:
  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.
