1. Banana Bread

Bananas are among one the beneficial fruits and they happen to taste great even when you try them with chocolate, caramel, and butter. So, let’s make the sweetly tantalizing Banana Bread to make our breakfasts more lively.

Ingredients:

• Four Eggs
• One Cup Canola Oil
• Six mashed Bananas
• Two Cups Sugar
• One teaspoon Baking Soda
• Three Cups Flour
• Instant Pudding Mix
• One Cup Shredded Coconut
• One Dark Chocolate Bar
• Salted Butter
• Kosher Salt

Steps to prepare Chrissy Teigen’s Bana Bread:

• First, we begin by preheating the oven to 326° and by using a bowl to combine the eggs, mashed bananas, and oil together followed by stirring well the pudding mix, flour, salt, and baking soda in another bowl.

• Let the ingredients of both bowls be combined but gently and make sure they’re mixed properly so we could introduce chocolate chunks and shredded coconut into the mix.

• You’ll be required to grease an oven-safe pan and flour it but ever so slightly and without additional flour being left inside the pan. Now, add batter into the pan and bake this into the oven for nearly an hour or until the cake appears to have sprung up evenly even within its center.

• Let it be mildly  cooled off to then use a butter knife to remove the cake from the pan from its sides and center only to then be put in a plate for serving. Afterward, proceed to cut slices and serve it with butter.
