Notes

* you could also substitute honey for the brown sugar

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 Cup plus 3 tablespoons whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 Cup brown sugar*
  • 1/2 Cup mini chocolate chips
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 Cups Greek yogurt, preferably Chobani's Vanilla Chocolate Chunk
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix together the dry ingredients in one bowl and set aside. Smash the bananas and mix them with the remaining wet ingredients in a separate bowl, and then mix the wet ingredients into the dry. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes. When done, take the loaf out of the oven and let cool for 20 minutes. Slice and enjoy.

Chocolate Shopping Tip

There are so many varieties of chocolate on the shelves today it can be overwhelming to pick one – as a general rule of thumb, the fewer the ingredients, the better the chocolate.

Chocolate Cooking Tip

When melting chocolate, use a double boiler and stir occasionally to avoid scorching chocolate at the bottom of the bowl.

Chocolate Wine Pairing

Sweet chenin blanc, muscat, or amontillado sherry with nut-based desserts; sauternes or sweet German wines with pound cake, cheesecake, and other mildly sweet desserts; sweet chenin blanc or muscat or Alsatian vendange tardive (late harvest) wines with sweeter desserts; sweet chenin blanc or muscat or Alsatian vendange tardive (late harvest) wines, port, madeira, late-harvest zinfandel, or cabernet sauvignon or cabernet franc with chocolate desserts.
