Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

It’s been a while since I’ve posted. What can I say…I’ve lacked motivation and inspiration to try many new recipes lately. We did prepare the Chicken Sate dish for family, and they really loved it.

I had some very ripe bananas on the counter, and I considered making a classic banana bread, but then I had a most brilliant idea…substitute chocolate chips for the nuts (not that I ever put the nuts in anyway)! It was delicious! Bananas and chocolate go very well together, and the gooeyness of the chocolate was quite decadent.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2 eggs beaten lightly
• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1.5 TBSP milk
• 3-4 ripe bananas
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1.5 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Directions:

• Blend mashed bananas, eggs, sugar and oil.
• Sift dry ingredients together and add alternately to the wet ingredients with the milk and lemon juice.
• Stir in chocolate chips.
• Pour into greased and floured loaf pan.
• Bake at 350 for 1 to 1.5 hours-done when knife put in center comes out clean.
