Banana Espresso Chocolate Chip Bread

Banana Espresso Chocolate Chip bread exploding with chocolate chips and a touch of delicious coffee flavor. This is your answer to a scrumptious breakfast on the go! Every morning my husband rushes off to work without grabbing anything for breakfast. I usually throw a granola bar or a banana at him as he is rushing out the door. When I walked into the kitchen the other day and saw a brown speckled bunch of bananas sitting on the counter, I knew that I would be making banana bread when I got home from work. I love baking bread when it is cold outside, the incredible smell fills my house and makes it warm and cozy. I promise that this bread will become your go to banana bread recipe!

Once the bread has cooled completely tightly wrap in plastic wrap-I swear this bread only gets better as the days go by. The flavors mingle together and it stays incredibly moist.

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour one 9×5 inch loaf pan.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the bananas, sugars, butter, milk, and egg; set aside.
• In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, instant espresso powder, baking soda and salt. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the well and stir just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
• Scrape batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth surface with a rubber spatula. Bake in preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then transfer to wire rack and cool completely before serving, at least 1 hour.
