Double Chocolate Banana Bars
Double Chocolate Banana Bars
"Double Chocolate Banana Bars made with 5 bananas & double the chocolate for a tasty banana recipe that everyone enjoys. Not too sweet & perfect anytime! Double Chocolate Banana Bars are a variation of our popular Chocolate Chip Banana Bars recipe. My family adores this version made with even more chocolate! Use whole wheat flour, coconut oil and even add spinach to make these delicious treats healthier. I like to serve these as an after-school snack, but they’re also perfect for breakfast and lunch. I make a pan and watch them disappear within a day- they’re THAT good!"
NotesYields 24 bars. *I used a combination of mini chocolate chips, regular sized chocolate chips and dark chocolate chunks for this recipe.
