Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, eggs, honey, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth and well-blended.
Add the almond flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and pinch of salt to the wet mixture. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined—don’t overmix.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before transferring to a serving plate. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
