This Chocolate Chip Cookie Banana Bread is a delightful twist on classic banana bread, combining the rich flavors of ripe bananas, chocolate chips, and crunchy cookie pieces for added texture. Made with gluten-free flour and sweetened with coconut sugar, this moist and flavorful bread is perfect for a comforting breakfast or an indulgent snack.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 25 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Banana Bread Base

  • 4 medium bananas (mashed)
  • 1 stick butter (melted, about 113 grams)
  • 1 cup coconut sugar or granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups gluten free flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp sea salt

Add-Ins

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup broken up cookies

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line a standard bread pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the bread.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, melted butter, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Add gluten-free flour, baking soda, and sea salt to the wet mixture. Stir carefully until just combined, being cautious not to overmix to keep the bread tender.
  4. Fold in Chocolate Chips and Cookies: Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips and broken cookie pieces, distributing them evenly throughout the batter for extra texture and flavor.
  5. Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into the prepared bread pan. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan before slicing to maintain its structure and enhance flavor.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and moisture.
  • Gluten-free flour blends can vary; a blend with xanthan gum included will help maintain structure.
  • Choose your favorite cookies for the broken cookie pieces—chocolate or oatmeal cookies work well.
  • The baking time may vary depending on your oven; start checking from 60 minutes.
  • Store the banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
