- Malt Chocolate Chip Banana Bread: Preheat the oven to 350F and line an 8×4 loaf pan with parchment paper.
- To a small bowl, add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and malt powder; whisk to combine and set the bowl aside.
- To a medium bowl, add the butter and brown sugar. Using a handheld mixer, cream the butter and sugar on medium-high speed for 2 minutes.
- Add the milk, yogurt, vanilla extract and mashed bananas to the bowl. Using the handheld mixer, blend on medium speed for 1 minute or until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add the dry ingredients and the mini chips to the bowl, folding just until the flour and chips are incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let the loaf rest in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack. Allow the loaf to cool to room temperature before adding the ganache to the top.
- Malt Ganache: Break the chocolate up into small pieces and place them in a small heat proof bowl; set aside.
- Add the cream to a small pot. Place the pot over medium heat. Heat the cream to the point of just beginning to bubble and remove it from the heat.
- Add the malt powder to the warm cream and stir until well combined. Pour the malt cream over the chocolate and let it sit for about 5 minutes.
- Stir the chocolate and cream together until well incorporated and all of the chocolate is melted.
- Allow the ganache to cool to room temperature.
- Once the loaf and the ganache have cooled to room temperature, the ganache can be spread over the top of the loaf.
- Store the banana bread at room temperature in an airtight container
