Chocolate-Banana Cake..... I mean bread.... I mean cake, You decide!

 I made this just on a whim, using one of my mom's recipe that was the first recipe I tried. It tasted like a chocolate muffin, with a gentle whiff of a banana. I made it gluten free. Here is what you need.


  • 1 mushed banana
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 1/2 cup coco powder
  • 1/3 cup gluten free flour
  • 1 tbsp xanthum gum
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Preheat the Oven to 350 F
I used an egg beater to beat the two eggs and mushed banana until they are frothy. Then added sugar, vanilla and beat for another minute. Then I added 3 tbsp of oil and beat that again until all of it became beautifully emulsified.

Then I added the coco powder, flour, baking powder, xanthum gum through a sieve on top of the liquid concoction and folded everything with slow movements with spatula. I used my favorite one from "The Bay." :) We do that to add air to the batter so it fluffs up and is not dense.

Add chocolate chips, mix in well and then pour the batter in a non sick baking pan.

Bake for 25-30 mins. Do the tooth pick check around 25 mins.

Viola, Enjoy.
