Wine Advice:

This Chocolate and White Chocolate Banana Bread pairs well with a glass of cold milk or a cup of hot coffee for breakfast. If serving as a dessert, try pairing it with a sweet dessert wine like a Ruby Port or a late-harvest Riesling to complement the richness of the chocolate and sweetness of the bananas.
