Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

My husband has a few recipes that are just his and his alone. His omelets are amazing … as are his deviled eggs, his meatball subs, and his grilled cheese sandwiches.

But his very best recipe of all? His chocolate chip banana bread!

Even so, he hasn’t wanted to share his recipe with the world until now. He finally changed his mind when some friends tasted it and begged him for the recipe, and he realized something this good deserves to be shared.

The big secret to his recipe? He uses way more bananas than usual. It’s that simple! We have a banana tree in our backyard that produces a ton of the cutest little bananas, so many that we can hardly keep up with the demand.

In many ways, this recipe was created out of necessity just to use them all!

We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Here is what you need:

Step 1: Pre-heat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg and cinnamon.

Step 2: In a large bowl mix together the mashed bananas, coconut oil and eggs.

Step 3: Then add the dry ingredients a 1/2 cup at a time into the bowl of wet ingredients. Continue adding and mixing until all ingredients are combined.

Step 4: Next add 1 tablespoon of flour to your mini chocolate chips and then add into banana bread mix.

Step 5: Place mixture into a generously greased loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray and bake for 55-60 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Then let cool for 3-5 minutes, remove from pan, slice and enjoy!
