Yes, you would have had banana bread before, but none of those can compare to this extraordinary Eggless Chocolate Banana Bread.
An eggless dessert that’s a class apart, this melt-in-the-mouth banana bread steals every heart with its awesome chocolaty, fruit-tinged flavour.
As always, the banana not just improves the flavour but also gives a nice spongy softness to the bread. The use of dark chocolate intensifies the flavour, while the interesting twist of using warm milk with lemon juice to bind the dough gives a wonderful texture to the Eggless Chocolate Banana Bread.
This dessert is truly something that needs to be experienced first-hand to understand its uniqueness.
