Banana Chocolate Chip Bread

Somehow 3 bananas managed to sit around on our counter long enough to be just right for banana bread.  The fact that I managed to burn the motor out of another blender and therefore have not been making smoothies may have had something to do with this.  Whatever the reason I was more than happy to turn those poor brown bananas into a delicious loaf of moist and chocolaty banana bread.

The bread lasted on our counter just about as long as bananas themselves usually do.  You could of course leave the chocolate chips out.  But why on earth would you  want to do that?!

  1. I love banana bread! I make banana bread pretty often for the hubby to take to work. Delicious photos. :)

  2. Looks delicious! We have too-ripe bananas that I just might have to use for this. And I buy those same choc chips. :)
