I have several go-to quick breads.
My pumpkin bread is a classic.
This Chocolate banana bread is another.
This one is a really rich and fudgy chocolate bread.
Its pretty standard but an awesome stand-by.
Especially if you add peppermint and swirls of melted chocolates and candy canes on top!
Enjoy!
