- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk

- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt

Cooking Instructions

- In a large bowl, whisk together mashed bananas, vegetable oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In another bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix!
- Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula (try not to eat them all while stirring!).
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Patience is key, but we know it’s hard when your kitchen smells like heaven!
