Banana Bread With Chocolate Chips
My grandchildren eat about 2 bunches of bananas a week and they are only 2 & 6. I always make sure I have plenty of bananas when they visit on Sundays. Well this past Sunday, they didn’t eat any and my bananas were starting to get overripe. I decided to make a loaf of banana bread because they have never had it before. I put a surprise of chocolate chips in the Banana Bread. It turned out pretty tasty. Of course, you don’t have to put chocolate chips in this recipe if you don’t want to, it won’t change a thing leaving them out. If you want you can even add nuts!
