Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Last night Christian texted me "So how difficult would it be for you to make a banana bread?" I replied with "Right now?" He texted back a few minutes later saying "For tomorrow- we are doing a breakfast potluck thing and several people asked if you could make it." I had made this recipe for the first time a few months ago for my husband and he loved it! He took some to work with him and his coworkers were asking for a bite. Shortly after, he asked me to make one for his coworkers, and they ate it up within minutes. So this morning I got up REALLY EARLY (8:15am) and made two loaves of this delicious, unhealthy bread.



The ingredients. I had already peeled the bananas.


Two batches.
