Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 large ripe bananas (mashed)
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x13-inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In another medium-sized bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract, and whisk until everything is well incorporated.
Step 4
Gradually fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients using a spatula, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake tender.
Step 5
Gently fold the chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Step 8
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Dust the top with powdered sugar if desired. Slice and serve.
