This Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is incredibly moist, dense, and chocolatey yet has less sugar than the usual!
One of the many fruits that we never run out of at home is — you guessed it!– bananas! and because we love bananas, it has become Twinkle’s all time favorite fruit. She even says “nana” whenever she wants one or whenever she sees a banana.
There are times that we overbuy bananas from our suking banana vendor and well, some tend to get overripe and spotty. It’s during times like these that a good recipe for a banana bread is called for.
Just like this Chocolate Chip S’mores Cookies and Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes, this Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is made with Sugar Blend.
Sugar Blend is really effective when you’re trying to cut back on sugar. One teaspoon of Sugar Blend (16kcal) is already equals to 2 teaspoons of sugar (32kcal). That means you cut your sugar consumption in half.
To those of you who might not know it yet, Sugar Blend is a sweetener product made with a blend of sugar and sucralose. It works well with all types of desserts and everyday dishes that needs a little sweetness.We use it for our coffee and to marinate meat products which needs a hint of sweetness like this Grilled Tuna Panga.
See how versatile it is? It is also affordable at ₱89.00 so you can #SweetAllYouCan with Sugar Blend.
To give the usual banana bread a little ooomph, I added cocoa powder and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Guess what? The family loved it and they couldn’t get enough. Even I couldn’t get enough of it.
It’s perfect when paired with a cup of joe and Ykaie loved it for school baon!
You should really try making this, mommies!

Aawww! Always a perfect combo, banana and choco! Looks so delish!
I love bananas! But we also tend to buy too much sometimes so we end up with overripened bananas, too. Good thing you have other alternatives. The choco chip banana bread looks so appetizing. I wish I know how to bake rin. Or when the time comes that I will try baking na, sana kaya ko rin yung recipe mo na ito 😀
This is really easy, Michelle! I’m sure you’ll be able to make it.
Your Chocolate Bread looks even more heavenly paired with hot choco… I think its a marvelous snack on a cold December day…

Argh! I’d really love to try this. My son loves eating anything with banana. I’m sure he’d love this. I wish we have an oven, though so I can bake anytime.
It’s really nice to have an oven at home — even the small one for easy baking.
Yummy! Perhaps baking one is one way I can finally make Justin eat bananas. He hates this fruit. Sigh!
I’m sure Justine will love this..

Another exciting recipe to try for my family’s eating pleasure.
Moist cakes are the best! We also always have bananas at home. I haven’t tried my hand at baking yet though.
I will start my self-baking lesson once I have decided on what oven to choose. Ano ba maganda mommy? Elba or La Germania? Your page will be my baking bff soon. hehe! Thanks… This chocolate chip babana bread loos so yummyyy…
hmmmm.. I really don’t know. I grew up using La Germania but I’m using Ariston now.
This is the only way you’ll get me to eat banana bread is if it’s chocolate! It already looks so delicious in your pictures!
Thanks Louisa!
