  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, kosher salt, and espresso powder.

  4. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips that have been dusted with flour to prevent sinking.
