Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
I don’t know what you do on a 95-degree day, but I felt it was necessary to test some baking recipes. We had some very ripe bananas, and I had a craving for something sweet, so Chocolate Chip Banana Bread was born. I am notorious for baking disasters, from dropping the entire container of flour on the ground to leaving out an entire critical ingredient. The banana bread and the kitchen survived my recipe testing this time.
