What to do with so many ripe bananas?
Chocolate Banana Bread!!
I could have made the usual banana muffins ⬇ (click here),
but I wanted to try something different. So I went to Pinterest…
This recipe was everywhere! The only thing I changed was the topping. I didn’t have chocolate chips. The only chocolate I had was actually a Portuguese brand of chocolate named Pantagruel and it has 70% cocoa. This is a great chocolate for baking, if not one of the best.
It turned out amazing! We buy bananas every week, but sometimes, we have an overload of ripe bananas. So instead of freezing them (for smoothies), I bake them!
Look at this yummyness….
Hope you enjoy!
