Method

Instructions

  1. In a stand mixer or by hand in a bowl, mix together the bananas, sugars, eggs, milk, vanilla, butter until combined.
  2. Add in half of the dry ingredient mix (flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt) and mix until just combined. Then add the remainder of the dry ingredients and combine until it's all starting to look like bread batter.
  3. Toss the chocolate chips in a shake of flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the pan and add them to the goop.
  4. Mix everything together until combined then add to the oiled or greased bread pan.
  5. Bake in 375 F oven for about an hour or so, testing every so often starting around the 45 minute mark. If the top starts to brown too deeply, but it needs more time to finish baking - cover the top in tinfoil.
  6. Best served warm, with a little butter and salt on top.
