Just as most of my recipes are created, this one happened when I had 2 really ripe bananas & a zucchini that needed using up. I added chocolate because they make everything better! They're totally optional but highly advisable.
I like to slightly undercooked mine so that it’s a little bit gooey. It's also much better to wait until it's cooled to slice it because it sets better but it's so delicious when it’s still warm & the chocolate is melted!

- Pour into a lined or well greased loaf tin
