It’s perfect as a snack or dessert, and a great idea to bring to a party or when hosting. Many of my readers asked me for a more regular kind of banana bread recipe, so I had to oblige!

Eggless Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

While I tend to add extra protein to many of my recipes, this time I went for a much simpler banana bread recipe. Still really yummy though! To make this recipe extra moist I added some of my favorite extra virgin olive oil from Saffi Foods.

I have known this company for a few years, and I have even been to the Chilean farm where some of their olive oils come from! So I can assure you the quality of their products is up there. I love this recipe because it’s:

Super tasty and extra moist.
Super quick and easy to make. It only requires 30 minutes or so in the oven.
Ingredients are high quality, which means it has organic whole wheat flour, good quality dark chocolate chips, and the best olive oil I can find in the USA.

Simple Ingredients

Whole wheat flour
Extra ripe bananas
Saffi Foods olive oil
Maple syrup
Baking powder
Apple cider vinegar
Dark chocolate chips

Gluten free option: you could sub GF oat flour for whole wheat flour, or use a mix of oat flour and chickpea flour if you want to increase the protein content.

Sweetness: if your bananas aren’t extra ripe, you might want to add a little bit more maple syrup. Make sure to taste the batter before pouring it into the loaf pan.

Dark chocolate chips: I make this recipe with vegan dark chocolate chips but a dark chocolate bar works as well; just break it into small chunks before using it.

I get my Saffi Foods olive oil in bulk, which is perfect if you cook a lot like I do or if you have a family to feed! This way you don’t have to worry about restocking bottles all the time.

How to Make Vegan Banana Bread with Olive Oil?

You need one bowl and a loaf pan.

Preheat oven to 360 F (182 C).
In a bowl, mash the 2 bananas.
Start adding the rest of the ingredients to the bowl, and stir until the batter is thoroughly mixed.
Fold 2/3 of the chocolate chips into the batter.
Pour the mix into an 8”x5” loaf pan.
Add the rest of the chocolate chips on top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes. Every oven is different, so it’s a good idea to test your bread with a toothpick! It’s fine if it's a little bit sticky.
Let cool and enjoy.
You can store it in the fridge for 5-7 days in an airtight container.
