Get baking - Chocolate and Banana Bread! Perfect Easter Recipe.
Looks good, huh?
Here's what you'll need:
-
100g
plain chocolate
-
150g
unsalted butter
, softened
-
175g
golden caster sugar
-
3 eggs, beaten
-
175g
self-raising flour
-
1 level tsp baking powder
-
25g
cocoa
-
2
large banana peeled and mashed
For the streusel topping:
-
25g
unsalted butter
-
2 generous tbsp
plain flour
-
1 level tbsp
demerara sugar.
- Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Butter and line
the bases of 2 x 450g loaf tins with baking parchment.
To make the streusel topping, rub the butter into the flour, then mix in
the demerara sugar and chopped pecans. Melt the chocolate either in the
microwave or in a small glass bowl set over a pan of barely simmering
water. Stir until smooth and remove from the heat.
-
Cream together the softened butter and caster sugar until pale and
fluffy. Gradually add the egg, beating well between each addition. Sift
together the flour, baking powder and cocoa and fold in using a large
metal spoon. Add the mashed banana and chocolate and mix well.
-
Divide the mixture between the 2 tins and top each with the streusel.
Bake for about 45 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes
out clean. Cool on a rack, then wrap in baking parchment or foil.
