Do you have any overripe bananas hanging around the house? We usually do, so I like to make Banana Breadusing our favorite Banana Bread Recipe. But sometimes, I like to change things up and try something new. My friend Kristi shared her mom’s Chocolate Marbled Banana Bread Recipe with me and told me I could share it with you. I think you are going to enjoy it as much as my family did! We will be adding this recipe to our family cookbook!
Banana bread is tasty…add in some marbled chocolate and you have yourself a pretty and tasty crowd pleaser. Due to the prettiness of the bread, this bread would be fun to serve to your guests for an upcoming shower or party!

Chocolate Marbled Banana Bread Recipe
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe banana (about 3 bananas)
2 eggs
1/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Cooking spray
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°.
Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring with a whisk.
Place sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until well blended (about 1 minute).
Add banana, eggs, and yogurt; beat until blended. Add flour mixture; beat at low speed just until moist.
Place chocolate chips in a medium microwave-safe bowl, and microwave at HIGH 1 minute or until almost melted, stirring until smooth. Cool slightly.
Add 1 cup batter to chocolate, stirring until well combined.
Spoon chocolate batter alternately with plain batter into an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Swirl batters together using a knife.
Bake at 350° for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan on a wire rack; remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack.
So go ahead and give this one a try! As always, I love to hear from those of you who give this a try! Let us know what you think! Will it be a recipe that you end up keeping in your cookbooks?
