16 servings (16 slices)
Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 60 to 70 minutes
Ingredients:
10 ounces pitted dried prunes
3/4 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 medium)
2 large eggs
1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup banana chips, chopped coarsely
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions:
1. In
a small saucepan, bring prunes and 2 cups of water to a boil over high
heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until prunes are very soft,
about 20 minutes. Drain.
2. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly butter a 5x9-inch loaf
pan and line bottom with a piece of parchment paper, cut to fit.
3. In a food processor, whirl prunes and bananas until very smooth. Add eggs and whirl to combine.
4. In a large bowl, sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder,
cinnamon, and baking soda. Stir in banana mixture until evenly
moistened. Stir in banana chips and chocolate chips. Scrape the thick
batter into pan and spread level.
5. Bake bread until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out a
little chocolatey but not gooey, 40 to 50 minutes. Loosen bread from pan
with a knife and invert onto a rack. Remove parchment. Turn bread
right-side-up and let cool at least 1 hour before slicing.
