To satisfy one of my evening cravings, I made this low-fat, chocolate banana loaf. I took the basic idea from the recipe for Low-fat banana loaf, at joyofbaking. I customized the recipe, added cocoa powder and used whole wheat flour. Here is the modified recipe.
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (I used 7 small bananas)
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
1/4 cup brown sugar (I used demerara sugar)
1/2 cup white sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips
Low Fat Banana Bread: Preheat oven to 160 degrees C. The original recipe states 180 degrees C. Since I use a convection oven I reduce the temperature by 10 degrees C, from the original recipe. Since this pan is a dark coloured one, I reduced it further down by 10 degrees C.
