This summer, the weather is quite capricious, it feels like autumn sometimes and it makes us want to eat something a bit more consistent! I had a few ripe bananas left over so I decided to make a healthy banana bread with chocolate pieces 🙂 You don’t have to use it if you don’t like chocolate 😉 but it’s absolutely delicious especially when the banana bread is still a bit warm, the chocolate is still runny! You can use pieces of walnuts instead or even raisins that you have soaked in rum beforehand.

3/ In a medium bowl, mix the flour, vanilla/cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
4/ In a large bowl, beat the eggs, oil, honey, and milk for 2 minutes.
5/ Mash the bananas – I mash 2 and a half bananas, keeping one half cut lengthways to decorate the top of the cake – then fold them into the flour mixture.

77/ Pour the batter into the greased pan, and add half a banana on top (optional) then sprinkle with cinnamon or sugar.
8/ Bake for about 1 hour or until a knife inserted comes out clean. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before turning out.
Et voilà !
