What goes better than a yummy chocolate bread & coffee?  For me, pretty much nothing! So I combined both the coffee and the chocolate into this delicious Mocha Quick Bread! 

I love coffee.  It just doesn't feel like morning without my coffee.  I also love chocolate! So of course I love mochas.  I don't drink them that often as I tend to drink most of my coffee at home.  But I love using both of these flavors in my baking.

The coffee flavor in the bread is not overly strong as both my children and my non-coffee drinking mother still enjoyed this bread.  But I think it enhances the flavor of the chocolate in the bread and makes it even more delicious.

I made this bread dairy free but you can use regular milk instead.  I don't always handle dairy very well so I often switch it out for almond milk.
