Second to last recipe post of 2020! So weird right? I’ve shared more recipes this year, created more content, and opened up more than ever before. I know 2020 was weird and difficult for many, but when it comes to all things HBH, we sure had an amazing year. I’m loving reflecting back on all the positive things this year has brought.
I was just reading some of (many) comments from Sunday’s Favorites post. I’m excited to dive into new content come January filled with healthier, yet still delicious recipes!
Ingredient Beer Bread
But guys, until then…I’m still in holiday mode. And today I have possibly one of my family’s favorite recipes. Normally I wouldn’t share a recipe so simple and easy, but I made this bread the other night when we did an Italian night of spicy stuffed peppers in marinara sauce. Any kind of marinara sauce needs bread for dipping. Since I knew my brother Malachi loves a good loaf of cheesy garlic bread, I made this. It took ten minutes tops to prep. The second I finished wrapping this in foil I thought to myself, “man, Kai’s going to tell me this is
, I just know it”. And then the greatest thing happened. I walked into my parent’s kitchen just as everyone was eating dinner, and literally, the first words out of Kai’s mouth were, “Tiegs this bread is insane”. It made my entire day.
Start with the garlic. It’s essential to this recipe. I like to caramelize the garlic in a skillet with a pat of butter until it turns extra soft and gold. Similar to roasting garlic, but much quicker. It will add a subtle, but rich garlic flavor to your bread that’s just a touch more special than using raw garlic. Caramelizing the garlic is key.
Cheaters No Knead Dutch Oven Sourdough Bread.
Now, assemble. You’ll need a sourdough baguette. If you can’t find that, classic french will work just as well! Slice the loaf, but leave the bottom of the loaf intact.
Mix the remaining butter with all those herbs, parmesan cheese, asiago cheese, and that mashed garlic. Slather the butter into every last nook and cranny of the bread, then wrap the whole thing up in foil. Bake until the cheese is melted, the herbs are fragrant and the top of the bread is perfectly golden.
The minute this hits the oven you’ll start to smell the garlic and herbs melting into the butter/bread. That’s when you’ll know this is going to be GOOD. Serve the bread warm with a tiny sprinkle of flaky sea salt.

Truly nothing is more delicious. I can’t wait to serve this to my family on New Year’s Eve…my brothers are already excited.
I LOVE serving this up with my pasta alla vodka or Bolognese sauce. But honestly, this is good all on its own, right out of the oven. It’s hard to beat.

Chocolate Chunk Chai Banana Bread.
This past week all I’ve wanted to do is bake. I”m sure the very cold temperatures and snowy weather have something to do with this. Regardless, I really just want to bake. And if I’m not baking, I’m making homemade pizza in the pizza oven. Which is currently my very favorite thing to do, I can’t get enough pizza (new recipes are coming).
In all honesty, I’ve found this year’s “Healthy January” to be a little tougher than in years past. I’ve had to really scratch my head to brainstorm “healthy” recipes over the last few weeks.
Celery juice on the other hand? Not so much. Don’t get me wrong, I actually love celery juice. But it’s cold, and just not what I want to sip on a white blustery January day, you know?
Easy Flaky Pull Apart Dinner Rolls.
Instead of denying those cravings, I tried to make my favorite cozy recipes a little on the healthier side. It’s all about balance over here, no diets, at least not temporary ones. Just creating recipes that are delicious and wholesome. Which is where this banana bread comes in. Yes, it has honey. And yes, my dark chocolate chunks are not 100% cacao. But hey, this bread is made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, and plenty of bananas. All healthy things, especially when it comes to the dessert world. So, I’m going with it, and very excited to be sharing today’s recipe. Just in time for the weekend too!
PS. have you tried celery juice? I know it sounds odd, but I recently tried some (because of this book) and it’s actually so good.
Moving on to the details. This is the best and easiest banana bread I’ve ever shared. It’s my go-to…that is until I develop a newer version in .02 seconds, and that becomes my favorite. Ahh, the life of someone who makes up recipes for a living. We always have a new “favorite”.
Easy Swirled Cinnamon Sugar Croissant Loaf.
Seriously though, this banana bread is moist, very banana-y, hinted with coconut, sweetened lightly with honey, and swirled with chocolate throughout. Every last bite is roll your eyes back delicious. Best part? It’s the easiest to make, requiring just one bowl and a handful of pantry staples.
Find yourself some very ripe bananas, I’m talking practically black bananas everyone. Like, you think they are too black to eat? Nope, that just means they are perfect for banana bread. Use them.
Mash up the bananas and then mix with a little coconut oil, honey, a couple of eggs, and a splash of vanilla. Add whole wheat flour, a pinch of cinnamon, and a dash of salt. The cinnamon is that unexpected ingredient that might seem a bit off, but it’s actually what makes the bread really good. It’s subtle enough that you can’t really tell it’s there, but it adds a special touch.
Cinnamon Crunch Bagel Loaf
Now stir in all the chocolate chunks that your heart desires. Bake, and less than an hour later your house is going to smell incredible, and you’ll have the prettiest deep golden, and chocolate filled loaf of banana bread.
Wait 30 minutes or so to slice into the bread. That way the bread will have time to properly set-up and fully finish baking after coming out of the oven. Waiting is what any professional baker would tell you to do, but let’s be real, no one cares what you
Do. Do what your stomach and your eyes are screaming at you to do. Slice the bread and enjoy it warm while the chocolate is gooey.
Herbed Garlic Butter Naan.
Oh, and major bonus points if you enjoy this with a little smear of butter and a drizzle of honey. It’s Friday, live a little. AND if you happen to have a snowy weekend in the forecast, you really need to bake this up. It’s great any day, but it’s best enjoyed on the coldest of days.
