Chocolate Banana Nut Bread

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray one 9 x 5 loaf pan with nonstick spray; set aside.

2. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over low heat. Set aside to cool.

3. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugars together. Add the egg, bananas, milk, and melted chocolate. Mix on low speed until well blended.

4. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking soda. Add the flour mixture and 1/2 cup of walnuts to the wet mixture. Mix on low speed until combined. Pour the batter into the loaf pan evenly. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 1/4 cup of walnuts.

5. Bake for 65 – 67 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely before slicing.

Freezing directions:

When the bread is completely cooled, wrap well in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. Label the bag and freeze for up to 2 months.
