I like chocolate and I like bread so why not have chocolate bread. Or as our youngest likes to call it …. ‘cake’.
Despite its similarities to cake and Winter being convinced I am giving her toasted cake with peanut butter for breakfast I promise you this is actually bread, and has significantly less sugar and fat than a cake.
In the recipe I have given instructions for 3 sizes of loaf , 500g, 750g and 1kg. The loaf pictured is the smaller 500g and lasted us 2 days.

Slightly sweet chocolaty breakfast bread, perfect topped with peanut butter.
