Total Time 1 hour
Servings 10 servings

Ingredients

  • 350 g ripe bananas 4 medium bananas
  • 150 g zucchini
  • 100 ml plant-based milk like soy milk
  • 30 g coconut oil (melted) 4 tbsp liquid coconut oil
  • 20 g agave syrup
  • 100 g oats
  • 240 g whole wheat flour
  • 10 g baking powder
  • 25 g cocoa powder 6 tbsp
  • chocolate chunks for topping
  • extra banana for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 160C/320F.
  • Cut the zucchini into chunks and blend in a blender until no chunks are left. Alternatively, grate finely.
  • Mash the ripe bananas in a big mixing bowl using a fork. Make sure there are no big lumps left, small lumps are fine.
  • Add the grated zucchini, plant-based milk, liquid coconut oil and agave syrup and mix well to combine.
  • Add the remaining dry ingredients and stir until evenly incorporated.
  • Line a loaf pan with parchment paper to prevent the bread from sticking to the pan. Bake the chocolate banana bread in the oven for approximately 50 minutes. Optionally, you can add 1 extra banana (sliced in half) and chocolate chunks on top before baking.
  • Let cool slightly before you remove it from the pan. Serve warm or store in a dry place for a couple of days.

Notes

Instead of chocolate, you can add cacao nibs and nuts (walnuts, pecans) for some extra crunch.
 
Make sure to use liquid oil. If your coconut oil is solid, pop it in the microwave for a minute to melt it. It won't work if you use solid coconut oil.
