Yummo: GF Chocolate Streusel Bread

Oh we’ve got a YUMMY for you today!!  While perusing pinterest one day, this image jumped out at me and I just had to give it a whirl!  To make it even better it was gluten free, used ingredients I already had on hand and was SUPER simple (pretty much all things that I need in order to attempt a recipe…especially when it comes to baking)  As you might already know I am obsessed with using Greek yogurt in my cooking.  I use it for EVERYTHING!  its a great replacement for cream cheese, sour cream and things like that in savory recipes and it’s also a fabulous way to add a little moisture and protein into your baking!!  So break out that baking pan, grab your Chobani Greek Yogurt and give this delicious recipe a whirl!
