Banana Chocolate Chip Bread

Here is my family recipe for Banana Chocolate Chip Bread.  It is my older brother's absolute favorite. We make this about once a month and for every single holiday.  I'll make this recipe but usually freeze one of the loafs for later.  If, for some reason, you do not like chocolate chips (!) you can swap for some walnuts. (However, then my older brother whines and refuses to eat it.)


Same  recipe as below but I baked it in a bundt pan.
Results were not great but it tasted just as good!


Banana Chocolate Chip Bread




¼ pound (1 stick) butter, softened
1 cup sugar.


Mix together with mixer or beat well with wooden spoon.


Add and mix well:


3 bananas, crushed ( I used over ripened bananas)
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla


Mix together, then add to the above:


2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt


Then add ½ cup milk.


Add 1-2 cups chocolate chips, sprinkled very lightly with flour (no more than 2
Tbsp.) Mix in by hand. Don’t mix any more than you have to.


Put in loaf pans. It makes 1 large or 2 small. Bake at 350 degrees. For small
pans, check after 35 minutes. Large pan will probably take an hour. Bread is
done when a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean. The top of the loaf
will be cracked and the crack will look baked.
