Chunky Monkey Bread

Teaching old bananas new tricks.

I'm not going to start this recipe blog off with a long story about how this was my mamas,mamas, grandmothers recipe. This is my take on classic Banana Nut Bread.

Chunky Monkey Banana Bread

2 C flour (sifted)

2 eggs

1C butter (melted)

1/4 C buttermilk

1/2 C brown sugar

3/4 C white sugar

4 very ripe bananas

1tsp vanilla extract

1tsp baking soda

1tsp baking powder

1/2 C walnuts

1/2 C chocolate chips

1/2 C Dark chocolate chunks

Here's how to get started!

Start by mixing wet ingredients. melted butter, vanilla, bananas, sugar, eggs and buttermilk.

Next add in sifted flour, baking soda, baking powder.

Then throw in walnuts, dark chocolate chunks and chocolate chips.

Lastly, pour your batter in a loaf pan and place it in the oven for 55 mins. You'll know it's done when you can stick a toothpick in and comes out clean. Be sure to let the bread cool completely before cutting
