    Layered Banana Cake Recipe with Step by Step Pictures. Banana and chocolate cake layered together in a loaf pan to create a soft fluffy banana chocolate cake.

    Layered Banana Chocolate Cake Recipe

    This is one of the best chocolate banana bread I have ever baked. It turned out so moist and chocolaty. This is for all banana and chocolate lover, you can enjoy a piece of plain banana cake and chocolate banana cake as well. You can make it as marbled banana bread as well, check notes.

    You can add 1 cup of wheat flour and a ¾ cup of plain flour. but I am sure the cake will be just perfect with complete wheat flour as well. And the addition of sugar depends on your taste. Try to use a really ripe bananas for the best banana flavour.
