This Chocolate Chip Raspberry Bread is moist, tender, and bursting with fresh flavor. An indulgent twist on regular banana bread.



Raspberries and chocolate are a perfect flavor combination, and they star in this decadent banana bread. I loved the tart burst of flavor from the fresh berries and the richness of the dark chocolate. Seriously so yummy!
We had a bunch of over-ripe bananas, so I made a big batch and sent a couple loaves to work with my husband. He came home with an empty tray and a bunch of rave reviews. Everyone loved it!
The raspberries do add extra moistness to the bread, so make sure you don’t under-bake it or it will turn soggy pretty quickly. And no one likes soggy bread. 🙁
If you’re looking for a way to jazz up your regular banana bread, give this recipe a try. You’re sure to love it!
