How many min i loaves can I make out of this recipe and how long can I cook it for? Thank you.
I don’t know Ann, you will just have to try it and see. I havent made it in mini loaves.
Turned out delicious! Only issue I had was that I had to cook it about 20 minutes longer than the recipe instructed.
This Sourdough Chocolate Bread is incredible! I need to keep a second batch o f sourdough going just so I can make this often. I went by the recipe but did add 1/2 cup chopped pecans to the recipe. It was so good my husband and I ate almost half a loaf while it was very warm. It was so good we couldn’t stop eating at one thick slice but went back for seconds. Thank you for sharing this great recipe!
You’re so welcome! So glad it was a winner!
