Low Fat Chocolate Banana Bread
This is a really yummy banana bread. It's great hot, right out of the oven and I love banana bread with butter on it. (not low fat anymore, but oh well!!) It would probably be good with walnuts added.

ooh I love it! I have a chocolate-banana bread recipe that I've been making for some time but it is far from low-fat! This sounds like a great alternative :) I'll have to try it soon.
this looks great!
Mmm, chocolate banana. I'll just forget the "low fat" part. ;)
