This recipe was taken from an assortment of recipes. In a bowl mush 3 very ripe bananas, add one egg, 1/4 cup of vegetable oil, 1/2 a cup of sugar (or apple sauce if you want to avoid sugar completely) and mix. Add 1 teaspoon of powdered cinnamon, 1/4 tsp of nutmeg, a pinch of salt, 3/4 tsp of baking soda, 1 tbs of Vanilla essence and mix.  Add 2 cups of peanut flour (or 1 cup peanut flour and 1 cup wheat flour if you’re not quite ready to go full on gluten free). Add 1/3 cup of cocoa and mix. Fold in 3/4 cups of chocolate chips. Place in baking tin and bake at 180 for about 40-45 minutes.

I have to confess, it doesn’t taste as good as regular banana bread, but if you’re on a diet and need a treat without breaking your diet. It’s especially good if you want to have that chocolate fix without breaking your diet. Avoid the sugar and wheat if you want to stick to your diet. I have to warn you though, the banana taste is lost in between the peanut aftertaste and the heavy chocolate taste. It is still surprisingly sweet.
