Chocolate Walnut Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350º.
• Lightly grease and cocoa pans; tap out excess cocoa.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together cocoa, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• In a large bowl, using a whisk or an electric mixer, blend together sugar, egg, milk, oil and vanilla.
• Slowly add in the dry ingredients, beating just until combined.
• Stir in walnuts, chocolate chips, and dates.
• Turn batter into the baking pans, sprinkle with nuts and chocolate chips.
• Bake 55 to 60 minutes for a large loaf, about 25 minutes for mini loaves or until tester inserted in bread comes out clean.
• Cool in pan on wire rack 10 minutes, take out of pan and cool completely on the rack.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, molasses, oil, eggs, bananas and vanilla until well combined. Set aside.
• In a small glass measuring cup, stir together the milk and vinegar and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Stir in the walnuts and chocolate.
• Add about a third of the dry ingredients into the banana mixture and stir gently until almost combined. Add half the milk mixture and stir just to combine. Stir in another third of the dry ingredients followed by the remaining milk mixture and finally the remaining dry ingredients.
• Transfer into the prepared pan and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
• Bake for 55 minutes to 1 hour, or until deeply golden brown and a cake tester or skewer inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool for 20 minutes before turning it out of the pan onto a wire rack to cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Slice the walnut bread thin into 8 slices. Heat a large nonstick skillet or a griddle over moderate heat. Butter 1 side of each bread slice, then put 4 slices, buttered side down, on a work surface. Cut chocolate into chunks, thin enough to fit in a sandwich. Place on the bread, cover with another slice of walnut bread and butter the side facing up. Grill on both sides, about 3 to 5 minutes each. Serve warm.
