I am always buying bananas because both my husband and daughter are always asking for them. Usually, they go pretty quick but sometimes they will just sit on the counter, left to go brown. Once the first spot appears, no one will touch them, even if they are still firm. Fortunately, this is when I like bananas because that means I get to make banana bread! I love all quick breads, but banana bread is the most popular in my house and it goes quick! I have to make sure that some is saved for my husband otherwise he wont get any by the time he gets home!

This banana bread, even without the chocolate glaze, is amazing. It has the perfect balance between light and fluffy and dense and rich. The banana flavor is spot on and it’s even better for you than traditional recipes! The chocolate glaze makes it even more indulgent, but frankly, with or without it this bread makes a great breakfast, snack, or dessert!
