Triple Chocolate Banana Bread
This triple chocolate banana bread is definitely a triple chocolate threat but in the sweetest way! The bread is made with cocoa powder, milk chocolate, and semi-sweet chocolate to give it all that chocolate flavor. Then, the added bananas in the mix are the perfect complement to the chocolate.
Chocolate Banana Bread Ingredients
Bananas:This recipe is the perfect recipe to use up those super ripe bananas.
Chocolate:As the name states, there are three kinds of chocolate in this recipe–milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, and cocoa powder. Reserve a few chocolate chips to use as a topping.
Room Temperature Ingredients:Make sure the eggs and sour cream are at room temperature before using.
How to Store Triple Chocolate Banana Bread
This banana bread can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days. You will want to put it into an airtight container or plastic bag and try to store it whole, not in slices. This will ensure that your banana bread does not dry out too quickly.
Can I Freeze this Bread?
Yes! You will want to make sure you allow the bread to cool completely. Just wrap the banana bread tightly with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap and place it in a heavy-duty freezer bag. If you prefer not to use foil directly on your bread, wrap it tightly with parchment paper, then place that into a sealable plastic bag.
Be sure to label it with the date. Bread is typically good for three to six months in the freezer, but the flavor will start to dull after about 1 month. To thaw bread, take it out of the freezer and set it on the counter. Allow it to reach room temperature before you take it out of its packaging. It will re-absorb some of its moisture this way.
Just look how moist this bread is!
