Vegan Banana Chocolate Chip Cake Recipes

VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a Bundt pan or a 5- by 10-inch loaf pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger. In a separate bowl, whisk together bananas, coconut milk, oil, vinegar and vanilla. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and whisk until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips; do not over-mix.
• Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for about 40 to 45 minutes in a Bundt pan or 50 to 60 minutes in a loaf pan until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out with a few crumbs clinging to it. Check the cake often and if it gets too brown on top, cover with foil and continue to bake. Rotate the pan halfway through baking time. Let cool, then sift powdered sugar over top.

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.

BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and fine sea salt.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter, oil, sugar, brown sugar, molasses, allspice, cinnamon, espresso and vanilla until just combined. The secret to this cake's texture is to stop mixing before the sugar is dissolved.
• Use a spatula to mix egg into butter mixture, then stir in flour mixture just to combine. Fold in bananas and chocolate chips. Scrape batter into prepared cake pan and bake until top is golden and sides begin to pull away from pan, about 25 minutes.
• Let cool for at least 20 minutes (or longer, until completely cooled), then run a thin spatula around the edges to separate from the pan. Invert onto a serving plate. Cake will keep for 1 day, covered.

BANANA-CHOCOLATE CHIP CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour oblong pan, 9x13x2 inches.
• Beat all ingredients, except chocolate chips, in large mixer bowl on low speed, scraping bowl constantly, 30 seconds. Beat on high speed, scraping bowl occasionally, 3 minutes.
• Stir in chocolate chips by hand.
• Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake until toothpick or cake tester inserted in center comes out clean, approximately 45 minutes.
• Cool cake completely and frost with Vanilla Butter Frosting.
• To make VANILLA BUTTER FROSTING:.
• Blend powdered sugar into butter.
• Stir in vanilla and milk.
• Beat until frosting is smooth and of spreading consistency.
• Hint #1. For best results, be sure the bananas you use for cakes are fully ripened. If you use firm bananas, the cake will not have the fragrance or the flavor.
• Hint #2. To sour milk: Add 1 tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk. For this recipe, use 2 teaspoons vinegar or lemon juice for 2/3 cup milk.
• Hint #3. When it comes to homemade frosting, I usually increase the recipe by one-half; so in this case, I used 4 ½ cups powdered sugar, 7 ½ tablespoons butter, and 2 ¼ teaspoons vanilla (using the same measuring spoons, 1 ½ teaspoons first, and then ½ and ¼ teaspoons vanilla).
