Рецепт Honey Banana Bread with Blood Orange Chocolate
Honey Banana Bread with Blood Orange Chocolate
World Market has got to be one of my all time favorite places to shop. I can peruse the International Food Isles for ideas and then go the kitchenware section and pick out new plates, or bowls or whatever strikes my fancy.
Now I am a bona fide chocoholic. I try to keep away from that part of the store, but sometimes I am magically drawn over to that area. I started towards the chocolate bars and noticed all the different flavored chocolates. That’s when I spotted the Blood Orange Chocolate. Now to use it in a recipe before I eat the entire bar.
Today, I present to you my Honey Banana Bread with Blood Orange Chocolate.

I know not everyone can find blood orange chocolate, so that doesn’t mean you can’t make this recipe and sub in your favorite flavored chocolate (cinnamon chocolate chips come to my mind)

Did you notice the addition of the marmalade? I experimented with the marmalade to enhance the orange flavor of the blood orange chocolate.
The result?
OH EM GEE! I went to foodie heaven. Honey banana bread that is moist and delicious. It’s chocolaty, with a hint of banana and a hint of marmalade too. I would say SUCCESS!
I am grinning ear to ear right now at how incredible this bread came out.
