- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
- Grab 1 1/4 cup combination of whatever chocolate you prefer, dark, semi-sweet, or milk chocolate bars or chips. Rough chop the chocolate bars until you have large and small chunks, and slivers of chocolate, add to a bowl and mix together. Or if you are using chocolate chips simply add to a bowl and mix the different chocolates. Remove a 1/2 cup of the chocolate (for the topping) and set aside in a separate bowl. (Do not add flour to this bowl) To the bowl of remaining chocolate add 1 Tbsp of flour (to prevent chocolate from sinking to the bottom), mix and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the first 4 ingredients.
- In a seperate bowl add egg, mashed banana, milk and oil.
- Add egg mixture to dry ingredients, stirring until moistened.
- Stir in 3/4 cup of the mixed chocolate that's been mixed with flour.
- Place in greased loaf pan.
- Sprinkle the top with an additional 1/2 cup chopped mixed chocolate chunks and shavings. (optional)
- Bake at 350F for approx 1 hour or until tester comes out clean.
- If chocolate starts to brown or burn cover loosely with aluminum foil and continue baking until done.
- Cool in pan 10 min, then remove to cooling rack to finish cooling.
Notes
I love to use a mix of milk, dark, and semi-sweet chocolate bars, however you can also use a mix of chocolate chips if desired. Topping the banana bread with additional chocolate is optional. To prevent the top from burning check the banana bread and cover with aluminum foil if necessary. Store at room temperature. The banana bread is best eaten the day of. However, gently warming in the microwave is recommended after the first day or two.
