Double Chocolate Banana Bread

I found this on Pinterest and tweaked it a bit. 

It's become a favorite around here!

Original recipe

Double Chocolate Banana Bread

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon instant coffee

1 tablespoon cocoa powder

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened 

2/3 cup sugar

1 egg

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

2 medium overripe bananas, mashed

1/2 cup sour cream

1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

Combine flour, baking soda, salt, instant coffee, and cocoa powder in small bowl. Whisk to combine. Set aside. 

In the bowl of an electric mixer combine the softened butter and sugar. Mix until combined and mixture is light and fluffy. 

Add egg, mashed bananas, vanilla, and sour cream. Mix until combined. 

With mixer on low speed, add dry ingredients slowly. Everything should be moistened thoroughly. I find that at this point it helps to remove the bowl from the mixer and I give it a good stir myself with a large spoon.  -This step helps to incorporate anything that's hiding at the the bottom of the bowl!-

Add the chocolate chips, stirring until just combined. 

Spread batter into a lightly greased loaf pan. 

Bake for 1 hour or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. 

Transfer loaf pan to cooling rack for 10 minutes. 

Remove bread from pan to allow further cooling.

Enjoy!
