Notes

Sofia’s Tips:
 
  • Want to quickly ripen bananas?! You can put bananas in the freezer for 2-3 hours, remove  and they have been flash ripened! 🙂 
  • Coconut oil can be substituted with Canola or any other, light vegetable oil
  • When freezing loafs/cakes make sure to individually, double-wrap each with plastic wrap and tin foil or use a sealed freezer bag! (can be frozen for 3 months)
  • This Easy Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread can be stored for up to 2 days in an air-tight container at room temperature, 1 week in the fridge, and up to 6 months in an air-tight freezer bag/container in the freezer.
