How to Make Egg Free Chocolate Banana Loaf Bread Mini Loaves Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan, three 6x3 inch mini loaf pans, or a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. Set aside.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, 2 ripe mashed bananas (about 1 cup), ½ cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Divide batter evenly among the prepared pans.
  8. Bake for the following times: large loaf (50-60 minutes), mini-loaves (35-45 minutes), or muffins (18-22 minutes). Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
  9. Let cool in pans for 5 minutes.
  10. Carefully remove cakes from pans and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  11. Drizzle with chocolate ganache (recipe below).
  12. **Chocolate Ganache:** Melt 1 ounce (28g) of bittersweet chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave at low power in 15-second intervals, stirring until smooth and glossy.
  13. Drizzle over cooled mini loaves or muffins.
