Servings: persons

4 Bananas (large), Very Ripe
1/3 cups Olive Oil
1/4 cups Honey
2 Eggs, Lightly Beaten
1 teaspoon Vanilla Essence
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
Pinch Of Salt
1-1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
3 Tablespoons Cornflour
1 cup Pecans, Roughly Chopped
130 grams Dark Chocolate Chips, Sugar Free (or Chocolate Bar, Chopped Into Small Pieces)

1
Preheat oven to 170u00b0C (340u00b0F). Grease and lightly flour a 9 x 5 inch loaf tin.
2
In a large mixing bowl, mash bananas with a fork until almost smooth. Mix in olive oil with a wooden spoon, then add honey, eggs, vanilla, baking soda and salt.
3
Stir in flour and cornflour until combined. Stir in pecans and chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bar.
4
Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and bake for 50-55 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. If you notice the bread going a bit too brown on top, cover with some silver foil and continue baking.
5
Once cooked, allow the bread to cool in the tin until the bottom of the tin is lukewarm before you turn it out onto a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing. (If you turn the bread out before it has cooled down enough, it might break apart.)
6
Note: If you don't have cornflour, use 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour-the cornflour makes the cake a little lighter!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
