BANANA BREAD
Ripe Bananas…again? No problem.
You will want ripe bananas after you try this Chocolate Banana Bread Recipe…it’s that good! I added a few chocolate chips too for good measure…and you can never go wrong with chocolate chips.
This recipe makes one good size loaf which should fit in a regular bread pan. I always bake my breads in these long loaf pans from Wilton. They seems to bake more evenly throughout. I get less burning on the edges with a doughy center.
CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD
I bet many of you have some ripe bananas on the table right now that are begging to be turned into some yummy bread!

This looks fabulous. I love chocolate anything bread. Pinned!
Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy it!
Hmm this is delicious! I had only 2 bananas, but it’s great. Only thing I changed was sugar, I put only a 1/4 cup and its enough for me.(I do not like too much sweet and put less sugar in every recipe, so nothing personal ;-))So with three bananas maybe even less.
I will definitely make again <3
Glad you liked it! Thanks for the tip! I usually will do less sugar too than the original recipe calls for! Never hurts to cut sugar where you can…that way you can have two slices :)
This is absolutely delicious. I have made it several times and our family loves it. gor
Gord- So glad you liked them.

I had over-ripe bananas on my counter. This was the perfect way to use them up. Well…let’s say it was the most DELICIOUS way to use them up! Anything chocolate and banana is a winner at our house!
