Healthy & decadent banana bread great for busy mornings and snacking! Gluten-free and dairy-free but still packed with flavor! There are chocolate chunks melted into the loaf and also a hard shell topping when cooled!
Banana bread is one of those year round recipes for me! There’s the comfort for a warm loaf during the fall/winter and also a sweet + bright feeling from a fresh loaf during the spring/summer!
This loaf was packed with chocolate chunks. I used the brand Hu Kitchen. I added 1/2 cup into the batter and also another 1/2 cup on top. When the loaf cooled, the chocolate on top formed a chocolate shell topping. So good with each bite!
This bread is great for a quick breakfast with your morning coffee or even as a snack mid-day! This is one of those snacks I have when I’m craving something sweet after a meal or when 3 pm hits.
This is a recipe you wouldn’t want to miss! Recipe below 🙂
