Triple Chocolate Avocado Bread- Gluten Free and Vegan from HeatherChristo.com

A few days ago I asked you via insta-stories what you are doing with all of those mushy overly-ripe avocados you might have accidentaly brought home from the store or left on the counter too long. You know what I’m talking about!

I get SO annoyed. Sometimes those avocados are a couple dollars each and I HATE wasting them! So you know how you make banana bread with overly ripe bananas? Well I used my overly ripe, bruised avocados for this pretty incredible (If I do say so myself) Triple Chocolate Avocado Bread.

Well you guys responded in MASS FORCE wanting the recipe, so here it is!! I guess some of you have mushy avocados lying around too….

Cocoa powder, chocolate chips and a chocolate glaze on top makes for a super chocolaty cake, uh, I mean bread? You can’t taste the avocado at all, but the bread is so moist and the texture is awesome. I also documented the kids tasting it and freaking out before I told them what was inside of the bread. They were confused and surprised but eventually shrugged and went back to shoveling the chocolate goodness straight into their little mouths!
