Steps:
- In a 9-inch seasoned cast-iron skillet, toast bread over medium-high heat, turning once, until golden. Tear bread into large pieces; pulse in a blender until fine crumbs form. Transfer to a large bowl.
- In skillet, cook garlic over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until soft and charred, about 5 minutes. When cool enough to handle, squeeze clove from skin; add to bowl with breadcrumbs.
- Toast almonds in skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl.
- Wipe chile with a damp paper towel. Slit chile lengthwise; remove stem, ribs, and seeds, reserving seeds. Cook chile in skillet over medium heat, turning once, until it just begins to blister (do not burn it ), 10 to 30 seconds. Transfer to bowl.
- Pour oil into skillet; add onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl. Add tomatoes to skillet; cook, tossing, until slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl.
- Add chipotle, adobo sauce, reserved chile seeds, banana, cocoa, sugar, cinnamon, oregano, and cloves to bowl, and stir well. Working in batches, puree mixture in a blender until smooth, adding the stock a little at a time.

MOLE POBLANO SAUCE
Mole is a rich, dark, reddish-brown, smooth sauce made spicy and robust with a creative blend of seasonings that most often includes dried chiles, onion, garlic, and ground sesame or pumpkin seeds. Its best-known ingredient is Mexican chocolate which is used sparingly. The chocolate, flavored with cinnamon, almonds, and vanilla, provides richness to the sauce without adding a cloyingly sweet aftertaste. In Mexico, mole, commonly served with poultry, is prepared in hundreds of ways. Its roster of ingredients can number few as four and as many as four dozen.

- Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent. Add garlic and jalapeño (if using) and sauté for 1-2 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until fragrant. Add chili powder, flour, cinnamon, cumin, and oregano, and stir until everything is evenly mixed. Continue sautéing for 1 more minute, stirring occasionally.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. Or transfer it in two small batches to a traditional blender, and purée until smooth, being very careful (**see note below) since warm liquids expand when they are blended.
- Return the saucepan to medium-high heat. Add almond butter, tomato paste, cocoa powder and sea salt, and whisk until combined. Continue cooking until the mixture reaches a simmer and the sauce as thickened.
