Chocolate Chip Streusel Banana Bread

Oh my gosh, you guys! I need you to drop everything and make this recipe! It is blowing my mind!

I know, some of you who do not have enough appreciation for carbs and sugar think I’m being dramatic. You may return to chewing on your kale chips.

But to the rest of you, get ready for a recipe that will become a new family favorite. It’s my new favorite treat to eat during my Dalgona Coffee Break, which will henceforth be called a “Dalgona Coffee and Chocolate Chip Streusel Banana Bread Break.”

And don’t worry, it has bananas in it, so it’s healthy.

Also, consider Intermittent Fasting if you want to eat things like this Chocolate Chip Streusel Banana Bread and not have to be forklifted out of your house when they let us out of quarantine.

Here’s the recipe!

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar

• For streusel topping: Combine topping ingredients. (I grate the butter on a cheese grater, straight from the stick.) Sprinkle the topping over the bread batter.
