  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Mix-Ins

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect baking temperature.
  2. Prepare Baking Pan: Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  4. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy milk, vegetable oil, mashed bananas, white distilled vinegar, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
  5. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients.
  6. Mix Batter: Gently whisk the mixture until just combined; be careful not to overmix to keep the cake tender.
  7. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the dairy-free semisweet chocolate chips evenly using a spatula.
  8. Transfer to Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
  9. Bake the Cake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Cool the Cake: Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack to prevent overcooking and to help it set properly.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.
  • Ensure bananas are ripe for maximum sweetness and moisture.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid a dense cake.
  • Use dairy-free chocolate chips to keep the cake vegan and dairy-free.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
