Servings: 6
Author: Hailey McCluskey

Ingredients

  • 3 overripe bananas
  • 2 eggs
  • cup real maple syrup
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 5 tbsp melted butter
  • cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • ¾ cup slivered almonds

For the topping (optional):

  • ¾ cup coconut flakes
  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup slivered almonds
  • 2 tbsp sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  • Mash 3 bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Add 2 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla, 5 tbsp melted butter, ⅓ cup maple syrup & ½ cup yogurt. Whisk to combine.
  • Add 1¾ cups of flour & 1 tsp baking soda to the mixture. Stir until flour streaks are almost gone, then gently fold in chocolate chips, coconut shreds and almonds.
  • Place in a lined loaf pan & bake at 350 F for 50-60 mins, until a toothpick inserted comes out with crumbs instead of wet batter.
  • While the loaf is baking, add the topping ingredients to a small bowl and stir to combine. Top with loaf once it is baked and return to oven at 475 for 4-6 minutes, broiling for an extra minute at the end if you'd like it slightly crispy.
  • Allow to completely cool for the crust to form, slice and enjoy!

Notes

You can alter the coconut, chocolate and slivered almond amounts based on which you prefer more/ less of!
