Choco-Cherry Upside Down Banana Bread

Added on June 30th, 2012 by our friend from http://tgipaleo.com

Cooking Steps

1) Start with the dirty work–pit all your cherries and chop them roughly. Set aside.

2) Whisk all your dry ingredients–EXCEPT THE COCOA POWDER AND COCONUT MILK–together. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and add the mashed bananas. Add the dry ingredients a bit at a time until well blended.

3) Spread the cherries out on the bottom of a greased loaf pan. Add 2/3 of the batter.

4) To the other third of the batter still in the bowl, add the 2 T of cocoa and 1 T of coconut milk. Pour the chocolate batter into the pan and swirl with a knife.

5) Bake at 350 for 45-55 minutes, or until a knife inserted comes out clean. Cool completely, then CAREFULLY remove the loaf from the pan and serve Cherry-Side-Up. Enjoy!!

  5. you haven’t said what the vanilla is and when to add it? Is it extract? I forgot to add it :-( so i quickly pulled the batter out of the oven about a minute after i put it in and swirled the extract through the batter, i hope it turns out good :-(
    And what kind of flax? Flax seed oil or flax seed?

  9. Be sure to do a good job draining the cherries before using them or it becomes a wet mess, even when baked.
