Coconut Banana Chocolate Chip Loaf

I love any dessert that includes chocolate, coconut and bananas so this amazing Coconut Banana Chocolate Chip Loaf is exactly what I needed to make. This moist and delicious bread is full of all sorts of delicious textures and is the perfect breakfast sweet bread.

This recipe is definitely a favorite and can use up those bananas that are too ripe to eat but would be perfect inside a recipe. Some weeks we can’t have enough bananas in the house and other weeks nobody touches them! Please tell me I am not the only Mom that goes through these fruit dilemmas!
