Ingredients you will need

•  3 very ripe and sweet bananas

• 1/3 cup of butter

• 1 teaspoon of baking soda

• 1 teaspoon of salt

• 1 cup of sugar

• 1 egg

• 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract

• 1 ½ cups of flour

• 2 cups of chocolate chips

• ( ½ cup of mixed sugar and cinnamon for top sprinkle)

Baking instructions

 *Preheat oven to 350

Step 1 – Peel all the bananas in a big bowl and mash together until smooth ( will have a few lumps but that good.

Step 2 – Add into the same bowl the butter, baking soda, salt, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix all together until smooth.

Step 3 – Add in the flour in small amounts and fold in

Step 4 – Add in your chocolate chips – how much is totally up to you. I like to add a little sweetness but not too over powering…. But chocolate is chocolate so self-control may be difficult. Hah

Step 5 – Spray your bread pan or use butter.

Step 6 – Pour into the pan and level out the top a little with your spatula

Step 7 – Before you put your banana bread in the oven, I like to add sugar and cinnamon mix to the top! Adds a little pizazz to the flavor.

Step 8 – Bake your banana bread for 55 minutes at 350 or until well done.

Step 9 – Enjoy! And let me know how yours turned out!

Always,
