• 4 tbsp. butter, soften (I used Brumble & Brown)

Instructions:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350.
• 2. Spray either 1 loaf pan or two mini loaf pans with cooking spray, set aside.
• 3. In medium bowl add the banana.
• 4. Using a potato masher, fork, or spoon to squish the banana.
• 5. It is alright for there to be small chunks of banana in the batter, but you want most of the banana to be reduced to mush.
• 6. Add the butter and eggs and mix well together.
• 7. In an another bowl combine sugar, flours, salt, baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon.
• 8. Combine the flour mixture with the banana mixture and mix until the ingredients are blended together.
• 9. Fold in chocolate chips.
• 10. Pour the dough into greased baking pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• 11. Small loaves take around 30 minutes, a regular size loaf takes around 40-50 minutes.
• 12. Remove from the oven.
• 13. After they have cooled for 5 or 10 minutes the loaves can be removed from the pan to cool. Once they are cool they can be eaten or individually wrapped and frozen.
• 14. Enjoy!
