This week’s TWD recipe, Coco-Nana Bread was chosen by Steph of Obsessed With Baking. I was toying with the idea of skipping this week, but I heard so many great things about this bread, I decided to give it a shot. Really glad I did; it eats almost like cake- really moist and tender, and the banana is barely noticeable. The best part, though, is how chocolaty it is – the chocolate chunks throughout the bread make it super moist and gooey. Yum!
This bread is pretty much more of a dessert than a breakfast food, but genius that she is, Dorie is trying her best to make all things chocolaty accepted as breakfast food. I vote yes. And I’m betting that this stuff will taste pretty darn good with your coffee in the morning. If you’d like the recipe, check out Steph’s blog – she’s got it posted.
I agree, Dorie is pretty clever with her way of trying to sneak chocolate into breakfast. I’m so glad you enjoyed this! Thanks for baking along.

Love how cheery your photos look! I agree with chocolate for breakfast (I make a chocolate chip walnut bread that is heavenly) but I want my banana on the side, not in my bread!

Agreed – chocolate for breakfast can never be wrong 🙂 I made muffins, which made it even easier to justify this as breakfast food. Your loaf is gorgeous!
