This soft and chocolatey Banana Chocolate Chip cake packed with banana flavour is super easy to make. In fact I have shared many banana cake or banana bread recipes before and you can find them in the Recipe Index above under Baked Cakes or Quick Loaf. This sinfully good recipe is filled with valrhona cocoa powder fragrance and topped with chocolate chips. This cake is not overly sweet, much to my liking. This banana chocolate chip cake is definitely great to serve at any time of the day. You can just store this delicious cake in an airtight container overnight at room temperature for your morning breakfast too.
Just a little note: If you have overly ripe banana left in your pantry, don’t throw away. Peel off the skin and place them in a ziploc bag and mash with a rolling pin. Then place the bag in the freezer and thaw the bag of mashed banana before you want to use it.
