Inspiration struck: why not bake bits of brownie in banana bread? To verify the brilliance of this concept, I launched into a flurry of baking. It was worth it.

Ingredients:

  • 10 tablespoons (140g) unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons (85g) natural unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs, straight from the refrigerator
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
  • For the brownie banana bread:
  • 1/3 cup (76g) unsalted butter
  • 3 medium very ripe bananas, peeled (1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups mashed)
  • 2/3 cup (137g) sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups (205g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda (not baking powder)
