Valentine's Day...

Quick Valentine's Day treats:

This is the same recipe as this but just with a valentine's day twist (dove hearts!), thanks to pinterest... which I'm officially obsessed with. I also used half whole wheat flour and half AP flour.

This is my favorite recipe for Chocolate Chip Banana Bread... However, we're on a health kick these days so I lightened it up and made it a little more nutritious... By omitting the oil in this recipe you literally cut out over 900 calories and 100grams of fat (for the whole recipe). Substituting with Greek Yogurt also adds a ton of protein. My boyfriend was clueless and still loved them. (P.S. You can't really tell, but these are mini loaves.)

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
• 1 cup All Purpose Flour
• 2 tsp Baking Soda
• 1 tsp Kosher Salt
• 2 tsp Cinnamon

• 3 Eggs (slightly beaten)
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1 1/2 cups Dark Brown Sugar
• 3/4 cup Plain Organic Greek Yogurt
• 2 cups ripe bananas (about 4)

• 1 cup mini chocolate chips or walnuts

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Sift dry ingredients together.
• Make a well in the center and add wet ingredients. Mix well.
• Add chocolate chips or walnuts and mix until combined.

• Pour batter into mini loaf pans and bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

This made about 15 mini loaves.
