Dès notre séjour du 4 au 9 avril, nous allons commencer à organiser un atelier cuisine pendant notre temps « Adventure Time » de l’après-midi avec les plus jeunes, puis à partager nos préparations avec tout le monde pendant le « Snack Time ».
À cette occasion, nous avons décidé de noter nos recettes préférées sur cette page.
Les mots les plus difficiles à comprendre sont traduits en bas de la page.
La recette du jour est celle du chocolate chip banana bread !
Ingredients list:
- 3 bananas
- 215 grams of flour
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 110 grams of brown sugar
- 115 grams of butter, at room temperature
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 50 grams of chocolate chips
Preheat your oven to 180°C.
In a small bowl, mash the bananas and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: the flour, salt, cinnamon and baking soda.
In another large bowl, use a hand mixer to combine the brown sugar and butter. Once combined, add the eggs, one at a time. Then add the vanilla extract and finally the mashed bananas.
Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and gently mix (with a spatula, a spoon or a fork) until almost combined. Then add 30 grams of chocolate chips and mix until just combined.
Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, then pour the batter into the pan.
Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top.
Bake for about an hour at 180°C. Check if it’s ready by inserting a knife into the centre of the bread. If it comes out clean, it’s ready!
And tadaa! After about an hour, you have your very own chocolate chip banana bread!

BONUS
Possible variations, depending on your taste:
You can add 1 tablespoon of ginger if you want your banana bread to have a more Christmassy flavour.
If you don’t want chocolate, you can leave out the chocolate chips and add 40 grams of brown sugar instead. You can also replace some of the sugar with vanilla-infused sugar for extra flavour.
You can also choose how much you mash the bananas, as this will change the texture. If you like having chunks of banana in your bread, don’t mash them too much.
For an extra light and fluffy texture, you can also add 30 grams of Greek yoghurt.
Of course, the only limit of what you can do here is your imagination, so create what you want and enjoy yourself!
