Chocolate Coconut Banana Bread<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
If you’re impatient (like me) and cut the bread while it’s warm, you’ll have a little crumbling action. I can deal with crumbs if it means eating this that much sooner, but if you’re able to distract yourself long enough to let it cool, you’ll be rewarded with clean slices.<\/p>\n
Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n- butter, for greasing pan <\/li>\n
- 4 ounces semisweet chocolate <\/li>\n
- 1 3\/4 cups flour <\/li>\n
- 1\/4 cup cocoa powder <\/li>\n
- 1 teaspoon baking powder <\/li>\n
- 1\/2 teaspoon baking soda <\/li>\n
- 1\/2 teaspoon kosher salt <\/li>\n
- 1\/2 teaspoon cinnamon <\/li>\n
- 2 large eggs <\/li>\n
- 1\/2 cup granulated sugar <\/li>\n
- 1\/2 cup greek yogurt <\/li>\n
- 1\/2 cup vegetable oil <\/li>\n
- 2 medium overripe bananas, mashed (about 3\/4 cup) <\/li>\n
- 1\/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut <\/li>\n
- 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Method<\/h3>\n\n- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x5x3 pan. Finely chop the chocolate and place in a small bowl set over a pot of shallow, barely simmering water. Stir until the chocolate is melted, set aside to cool slightly.<\/li>\n
- In a medium bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon; set aside. In a mixer, beat the eggs and sugar on medium speed until pale yellow, about 3 minutes. Add the yogurt, oil, and bananas; mix until well combined.<\/li>\n
- With the mixer running on low, drizzle in the chocolate (I put mine in the cup used to measure the oil; pours more cleanly and easily). Scrape the sides & bottom of the bowl with a spatula to make sure everything is thoroughly combined. With the mixer running on low, slowly add the flour until it’s just incorporated. Fold in the coconut with a spatula.<\/li>\n
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. Sprinkle with the turbinado sugar and bake 60-70 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then run a knife along the edges and carefully turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
