Ingredients
- 1/4 cup oil mild flavored
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3 bananas mashed or 2 larger ones
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups white whole wheat flour fluffed, spooned and leveled, not scooped. Can use regular whole wheat or all purpose as well.
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or more to taste
Instructions
- With a whisk or in a mixer, mix together the oil, sugar, eggs, mashed banana, milk and vanilla.
- Combine the remaining ingredients except the chocolate chips, then mix them into to the first mixture. If batter seems dry, add 1-2 T extra milk. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Pour into a greased (I use Pam) 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. Bake at 350 about 50-60 minutes, testing for doneness with toothpick.
- Let cool about 5 minutes in pan to facilitate the release. (Run a thin knife around the edge of the bread if needed.) Tip pan upside down to release the bread and set onto a wire rack to finish cooling.
- Enjoy.
