Chocolate Chip Quick Bread – Homemade In a Hurry
We’ve all been there: a last minute dinner party, forgotten bake sales or an unexpected guest. It’s times like these where we require something homemade in a hurry, like this Chocolate Chip Quick Bread from Robin Hood.
I wear many hats in my life: I’m a mom, a wife, a student, a friend and I also work from home. As much as I enjoy baking, it’s not always easy to find the time to create an amazing dessert to bring to functions or even to enjoy for myself.
When I see my friends posting their chocolate chip cookies they made with their children, or when my husband asks if I can make a cake “one of these days” it brings on a little bit of guilt.
It’s time to delegate.
I decided to hand over the baking prep to Robin – Robin Hood, that is. Robin Hood has come out with a line of quick bread mixes that require little time and produce a big impact.
I opted to try their Chocolate Chip Quick Bread Mix. It was really easy to prepare. Simply dump the ingredients in a bowl, mix, pour half the batter into a greased loaf pan, sprinkle 2/3 of the chocolate mixture over top, pour the rest of the batter and sprinkle the remainder of the chocolate mixture. Then you just toss it in the oven and go back to doing whatever it may be that needs your attention for 45 minutes. (In my case that was work)
In just 45 minutes, I was presented with a chocolate chip quick bread that looked beautiful and homemade. I let it cool for a good twenty minutes before I transferred it to a serving platter.
The results were fantastic. I was left with a dessert that filled my house with the aroma of a bakery, my husband even asked if I had a new candle when he first walked in the door. (That proves that I don’t bake as often anymore.) With just five minutes of prep work, I was given a quick bread that looked like I spent a solid twenty minutes in preparing. I love that.
The Chocolate Chip Quick Bread Mix from Robin Hood is perfect for those last minute class parties (the ones the kid’s tell you about the eve of, right before bedtime), impromptu dinner parties or a little treat for a job well done; whether that means a completed project or keeping your cool after a frustrating grocery shop with the kids.
New Robin Hood® Quick Bread Mixes give you a homemade solution that can go from box to oven in just 5 minutes. With only three simple and easy steps, your last minute treat is baking in the oven and you are ready for whatever comes your way next! Easy to prepare and even easier to enjoy, New Robin Hood Quick Bread mixes come in a variety of delicious flavours like Lemon Poppy Seed Flavour, Banana Flavour, Cinnamon Swirl and Chocolate Chip.

I’ll have to look for this when I go for groceries this evening.
I love that your husband immediately went for candle instead of baking 🙂 Sounds like my house!
Yum 🙂 I will have to check these out!
There is nothing I love more then simple when it comes to cooking! (hard to believe when you see the amazing salad I posted about , LOL). This bread looks so good and well made. I am definitely checking these out..
My mouth is watering! That looks delightful and I love that it has a hidden center of yumminess!! I’m going to have to try this!
This sounds so yummy! I can’t wait to try it.
Okay now that is going in my belly! I will have to make a trip down that isle when I go shopping tonight to pick that up it looks amazing! I may or may not share with the kids … that is to be determined!
oh that does look good! I could go for a piece right now!
Box to oven in 5 minutes is super fast. I like to make homemade, but sometimes it’s easier to have it all made for you.
I’m usually a homemade only kind of girl too, but I have to admit – this tasted pretty awesome and I love how fast it was!
This sounds great! I haven’t made bread in such a long time.
This looks yummy! Thank you!
I’m all for anything that’s quick and tasty. If it’s a pre-made mix, even better!
Yum this looks amazing!
I love finding new recipe ideas. It’s so easy to fall into a rut and serve the same things over and over again. This sounds good! Thanks for the recipe!
I haven’t heard of these quick mixes! Thanks for the review!

I have to make this. I like that it is easy to make and not too overly sweet. I might add a glaze over top.
It looks very yummy. I’m going to have to try it.
Darn!! Now I’ll have to try this! Why did you post those pictures, now I’m hungry….? And I’m on a diet…. I’m gonna go cry in my corner now! Lol. 🙂
Hahaha! Sorry about that one 😉 Make them in muffin tins and use apple sauce instead of oil. That’s what I did the other week and it was a decent portion 😉
I am pretty sure this will be a winner at the holiday bake swap. I will have to sample some first.
The pictures that you took look great. They should put your picture of the finished chocolate chip quick bread on their box instead of the picture that is there now. Usually in the past when I bake something from a mix the picture looks better than my finished product.
You’re my comment of the day 🙂 <3 Thank you!!
Oh!! This looks so incredibly good!! Thank you for sharing the recipe,
Looks delish , i gotta look for this when i get groceries .. it would be great for those times when Hubby says whats for dessert lol
