Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together mashed bananas, melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Prepare chocolate batter: Divide the batter into two bowls. In one bowl, mix cocoa powder and milk to create the chocolate batter.
Marble the batters: Alternate spoonfuls of plain and chocolate batters in the pan. Swirl together with a knife for a marbled effect.
Bake: Bake for 50–60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool before slicing.

Notes

Enhance with ½ cup of chocolate chips for extra richness.
Substitute some butter with sour cream or Greek yogurt for a softer texture.
