VEGAN MARBLED CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 365F (185 C) and line 9x5 inch pan with parchment.
• In a bowl mix all the wet ingredients until well combined
• In another bowl mix the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
• Add 1 3/4 cup of the dry mixture to the wet ingredient bowl and mix it in. Add the rest of the dry flour mix 1 tbsp at a time, until batter is stiff like a muffin batter.
• Divide the batter into two bowls.
• For the chocolate layer, mix the cocoa in a small bowl with 3 tbsp of boiling water, mix this into the first bowl.
• In the second bowl, add 1-2 tbsp of boiling water and mix in so that mixture is not that thick.
• Now you can assemble the loaf as you like with whatever pattern. I usually alternate the batters and spread them out for a marble effect. Once all of the batter is finished, top with the mini chocolate chips.
• Bake for 55-60 minutes. Check with a toothpick from the center of the loaf
• Cool the loaf for 10 minutes before taking it out of the pan, cool completely before slicing.

VEGAN MARBLE BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Butter & flour a 9x5 loaf pan, or use baking spray with flour. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Add in the oil, sugar, milk, vanilla, 1½ cups of flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until combined.
• Transfer half the batter to a separate bowl. To one part of the batter, add in the additional ¼ cup of flour and mix to combine. To the other bowl of batter, add in the cocoa powder and chocolate chips. Mix until batter comes together.
• Drop spoonfuls of the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan, alternating between plain and chocolate. Repeat until all batter has been used up. You can use a butter knife or skewer to swirl the batter around for a more marbled effect. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top.
• Bake marble banana bread in preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too fast, you can cover the bread with a piece of foil to prevent burning as it finishes cooking.
• Let cool slightly, then remove from pan, slice, and enjoy!

MARBLED CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD (VEGAN)

Steps:

• Prepare boiling water, no need to measure yet. Also, preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mash the banana in a large mixing bowl until relatively smooth. It should take 3 average sized ones, but spoon the mashed 'nanas into a measuring cup to make sure, then return to the mixing bowl. Beat in the sugar, canola oil, milk and vanilla.
• Now add the flour, baking soda and salt and gently mix just to incorporate. It's okay if there is some flour still visible, just be careful not to overmix at this point.
• Scoop one cup of the batter up and transfer it to a separate mixing bowl. Now, in a small tea cup mix the cocoa powder with 3 tablespoons boiling water and stir vigorously with a fork until the chocolate is dissolved. Add this chocolate mixture to the one cup of banana and mix until the chocolate is thoroughly smooth and incorporated.
• Now back to the original plain banana batter; add 3 tablespoons of boiling water and mix the batter just until relatively smooth. (Unless your batter is already moist enough, then skip the extra water.).
• Here comes the fun part, it's time to marble! Lightly grease an 8×4 loaf pan. Scoop alternate 1/2 cupfuls of chocolate/banana batter into the loaf pan. Nothing has to be precise here, in fact, the more random, the better. Once all of the batter is in, take a butter knife and swirl it through the batter in circular directions for about 10 seconds.
• Bake for 55 minutes. Use a butter knife to test for doneness. Let cool and enjoy!
