Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 6-cup mini loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
Peel the ripe bananas and mash them in a large mixing bowl until smooth.

Melt the butter and let it cool slightly. Add the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar to the mashed bananas, and mix well until combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.

Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
Step 8
Divide the batter evenly among the mini loaf pans, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 9
Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 22–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a loaf comes out clean.
Step 10
Remove the mini breads from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve and enjoy these delicious Chocolate Banana Mini Breads as a snack or dessert!
