Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is a must have recipe for ripe bananas. What I love most about this recipe is no mixer is required, just a good ole’ wooden spoon will do the job! I love this recipe but I don’t get to make it often because I cannot keep bananas long enough — my little monkeys eat them too fast.  When I do make this delicious banana bread it will be gone fast because my hubby and I can’t stop eating it.  It is a great snack or breakfast treat.

Did you know you can freeze bananas?  That is a great tip for over ripe bananas or bananas that you find on managers special.

This is the most delicious Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipe ever! Trust me once you give this recipe a try you will be happy you did!
