![Chocolate Banana Bread [Vegan]](https://149366112.v2.pressablecdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/chocbanana.jpg)
I used a white chocolate bar for the chocolate chips, but any dairy-free chocolate chips will do. Make sure the loaf has cooled down fully before pouring the ganache over it.

Hi there! This recipe sounds delicious! I have all the ingredients except for the dessicated coconut – is the lack of it going to affect the outcome of the recipe, or will my banana bread still turn out?
Thanks for your help!
