Coconut Chocolate Chip Skillet Banana Bread

This Coconut Chocolate Chip Skillet Banana Bread and a tall glass of milk is what breakfast dreams are made of!

It’s time to grab yourself a nice cold glass of milk and belly up to the breakfast bar my friends!

How was everyone’s 4th of July?! Hoping you all had a relaxing extra loooooong weekend filled with family, friends and lots of fun! It was gorgeous at the beach. A bit steamy, but a quick little dip in the ocean was just the ticket!

I figured something a little extra special was needed this Monday morning to help us all get back into work mode for the week. And this Coconut Chocolate Chip Skillet Banana Bread is the perfect solution!

Banana bread is a regular at our house when I’ve got extra over-ripe bananas sitting on the kitchen counter. And not that banana bread could ever be boring, but sometimes I like to jazz it up just a bit.

I decided today’s jazzed up version wouldn’t be the usual old loaf, but skillet style instead. And since it’s a Monday, AND a Monday after a long extended holiday weekend, chocolate would absolutely need to be added. AND since we’re going with chocolate, why not add some coconut, since you can never go wrong with the chocolate coconut combo.

The prep for this bread is super quick, at just 15 minutes. And it only takes 30 minutes to bake. So set aside some of those brown bananas, grab yourself a glass of milk and treat yourself! Enjoy!
