How to make healthier chocolate banana quick bread

This will show you how to make a healthy, super moist and double chocolate banana bread. Don't eat the whole loaf, but you can feel better about having this for dessert or with your morning coffee because it will have more whole foods and less man-made processed foods. Wait - healthy banana bread, no sugar? Is that possible? Yes, it is, you will definititely want to add this to your file if healthy recipes. For a start it adds a blend of white and whole wheat flours (going 100% whole wheat might turn away pickier eaters). It removes inflammatory, processed vegetable oil and swaps in heart healthy coconut oil which also adds a wonderful moistness to this banana bread. It has also removed horribly addictive man made sugar and replaced it with honey. Make it even healthier by swapping almond flour for the whole wheat/white flour combo as well as swapping one of the eggs for a flax "egg" (1T ground flax seed + 3T water, mix together and let congeal for 10 minutes).
