Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas

- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Optional Toppings
- Dark chocolate chips
- Melted dark chocolate
- Fresh banana slices
- Chopped walnuts or pecans
- Sea salt flakes
Instructions
Step 1: Blend the Batter
Add the following ingredients to a high-speed blender:
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Blend for 45–60 seconds until the batter is smooth, thick, and glossy with no visible oat pieces.
Step 2: Prepare the Pan
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a loaf pan (or a small baking pan) with parchment paper.
Pour the chocolate batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
For extra chocolate flavor, sprinkle a handful of dark chocolate chips over the surface before baking.
Step 3: Bake
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the cake has risen beautifully and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 4: Serve
Slice the cake while it’s still slightly warm.
Finish with:
- A drizzle of melted dark chocolate
- Fresh banana slices
- Extra chocolate chips
- Optional chopped walnuts for added crunch
Serve with a cup of coffee, tea, or a glass of milk.
