If you are looking for a healthy treat to make with those old bananas, look no further. If you are a chocolate fan, this skinny chocolate banana bread is a lightened-up, chocolate spin on the classic sweet treat. I love eating this banana bread as-is, or alongside fresh berries and whipped cream or nut butter, or some ice cream for the ultimate indulgent-tasting dessert. It’s sweet and delicious, and lightened up just enough without compromising flavor.
