Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs and add in the Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula or spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to ensure a tender bread.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips, keeping a few aside to sprinkle on top of the bread before baking.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. If you reserved some chocolate chips, sprinkle them over the top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice the chocolate bread into 8 equal pieces. Enjoy it plain, topped with a spread like almond butter, or with your favorite toppings.
