Four Ingredient Chocolate Banana Bread

Easy four-ingredient chocolate banana bread is one of the easiest banana bread recipes that you can make.

Banana bread in general is not hard to make. I have a regular banana bread recipe and a gluten-free banana bread recipe that I have been making for years. But sometimes you just need quick and easy.

Today’s recipe for four-ingredient chocolate banana bread is just that. It is so easy to make and tastes great.

This recipe is based on an old Betty Crocker recipe for banana bread that uses a cake mix. And actually, I am not 100% sure where this recipe came from, but I think it is Betty Crocker. It is one of those recipes that I think has been around so long that no one really knows where it started.

Most of the recipes that I have seen for this bread use a basic white or yellow cake mix. That works fine, but since my family loves chocolate, I prefer to change it up and use a chocolate cake mix instead.

The other thing I like to do is to stir in a few chocolate chips. Now, this changes it from a four-ingredient recipe to a five-ingredient recipe, but either way it is still a very quick and easy way to make banana bread to make.
