Chocolate Banana Bread

Chocolate Banana Bread

I made up a loaf of this this morning — and by made up, I mean made up.  I improvised the recipe with what I had on hand.  It’s a heavy bread, but good and moist and very tasty with a cold glass of soy milk.  (I’m lactose intolerant, remember?)  I’m pleased with how it turned out.  More importantly, the house smells divine.   

 

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

3 T cocoa powder 

1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 T instant espresso

1/4 c. egg substitute or 1 whole egg

1 cup banana, mashed

1/4 cup babyfood prunes

1/3 c. pecan halves

3 dark chocolate squares, chopped  

 

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8×4 inch loaf pan.

2 Mix dry ingredients in one bowl, wet in another, then combine. Don’t over work it.  Pour batter into prepared pan.

3 Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes. Turn out onto wire rack and allow to cool before slicing.
