1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon cinammon
2 ½ cups flour
1 (11 ounce) bag milk chocolate chips
1 (11 ounce) bag milk chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Cream butter, eggs, brown sugar, bananas, applesauce and crushed pineapple with a mixer. Add baking soda, salt, vanilla, cinnamon, and flour. Mix well.
Pour into 3 medium bread pans ( I like to use disposable foil pans) and sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the batter. Bake at 325 for 55 minutes to 1 hour.
I made this two days ago and HOLY COW it's delicious! I couldn't believe how juicy it was. Thanks for sharing!
This looks SO gorgeous. I was going to make banana breads as Christmas presents...I might just use this recipe!
Yum...love the melting chocolate chips...mmmm
Sometimes that's true because banana bread is a little bit dry in our mouths, so it doesn't matter because the flavor is incomparable.m10m
Wow, I can't wait to make this for the family!
I made this banana bread today. I didn't have any crushed pineapple, so I left it out. I was also out of milk chocolate chips. I had about a cup of Heath Brickle Chips. I added about half to the dough and the rest on top of the bread. WOW- whole new level of great! Thanks for the recipe!
I made this recipe today as a muffin and put in the cream cheese filling from your pumpkin muffins. Really good, thanks again for such a great site!
