Method
1. Preheat the oven to 170℃. Line and grease a 23 cm loaf pan. Set aside.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk oil and sugar until combined, adding in eggs individually, beat until light and creamy. Add in vanilla essence, stir in the mashed bananas and milk.
3. Sift in the flour and baking powder, with the salt into the egg mixture. Gradually add the milk. Stir until just combined.
4. Meanwhile for the chocolate marble, mix together the cocoa, sugar, and water.
5. Spoon 1/2 of the banana mixture into the pan. Top batter evenly with small dollops of the chocolate marble mixture, top with remaining banana mixture. Repeat process with chocolate mixture. Pull a table knife through the batter to create a marble effect.
6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until when a skewer is inserted it comes out clean.
7. Leave to cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan, allow to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Variations, Hints and Tips:
- Add 5 ml ground cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
- Make individual portions by baking in a muffin tray.
- Top with chocolate ganache: Stir 250 ml hot milk or cream over 320 g chopped chocolate. Allow to thicken slightly by allowing to cool.
- For a plain banana loaf, the chocolate marble may be omitted from the recipe.
- Replace the chocolate marble with 30 ml chocolate hazelnut spread or add 6 blocks of chopped milk chocolate.
