Wheat Flour chocolate Bread

 I usually make the banana bread with wheat flour. This time I tried with chocolate, Choco chips and walnut and the taste of the bread is really mouth watering.

Pre heat the oven: 180C

Prepare a loaf pan (9 x 5 x 3 inch (23 x 13 x 8 cm) using vegetable spray or butter. I prefer butter.

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup walnuts 1 1/2 cups wheat flour (can be used  3/4 cup all purpose flour+ 3/4 cup Wheat flour) 1/4 cup cocoa powder (I used "Weikfield " cocoa powder) 1 cup powdered sugar 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup white, dark, or milk chocolate chips ( I used mix of white and dark chocolate chips) 2 large egg, at room temperature 1 1/2 cups of mashed bananas ( 5 large long ripe bananas -in Assamese it is JAHAJI KOL) 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter -melted and cooled to room temperature ( Can be used salted butter also, If using salted butter do not add salt) 1 teaspoon vanilla.

Method: Place the nuts on a baking sheet and bake for about 6 minutes or until lightly brown and fragrant. Let cool and then chop coarsely. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the chopped nuts and chocolate chips. Mash the banana and measure it. In another bowl, whisk the eggs. Then add the mashed bananas, melted butter, and vanilla. ( Alternatively you can add all this ingredient in a mixie jar and blend it well.) Lightly fold the wet ingredients (banana mixture) into the dry ingredients until just combined with a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon. The batter will be thick and chunky, Scrap the batter into the loaf pan and smooth the top with a back of a spoon. Bake for about 40-50 min in the middle rack in the oven. Check the bread inserting a tooth pick.  Note :  Frozen bread can be stored for a month.                                             ************
