A recipe (originally by Ann Tremont) my mother put in a cookbook that I have modified quite a bit. Every time I bring this to work, everyone wants a piece (and there's not enough to go around).

SERVES 8 -12 , 1 loaf (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup sugar
2/3 cup diced walnuts
2/3 cup mini chocolate chip
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 large ripened bananas
1/2 cup butter
2 whole eggs

Directions

1
Hand mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, walnuts, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract in mixing bowl until chocolate chips and walnuts are evenly spread out throughout mixture.
2
In another bowl, mash bananas and add to the main mixing bowl.
3
Soften the butter (I microwave for 20 seconds) and add to the main mixing bowl.
4
Add two whole eggs to main mixing bowl.
5
Mix all ingredients together by hand until it has a batter-like consistency.
6
Pour into greased loaf pan.
7
Let mixture set for at least 20 minutes before baking (Preheat the oven to 325°F).
8
Bake at 325°F for 65 minutes (may take longer depending on the oven and altitude).
9
When finished baking, it is best to let it set overnight before serving.
10
---.

An optional recipe: Instead of the chocolate chips, use 1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon to make Cinnamon Banana Nut Bread.

I made this last night and it is very good banana bread! This makes a large loaf that bakes up high to a rich golden brown. Perfect!! It took mine about 65-70 minutes. I let it cool for about 1/2 hour before slicing into it and it was so good still warm and fresh from the oven. I refrigerated it overnight and had another piece of it today and it's just as good the next day. I think 1/2 cup of sugar is plenty. I may even cut it down slighty next time because between the choc. chips and the banana it's plenty sweet for my tastes. Delicious! I will definately make this one again. Thank's for sharing!!

Very Good. I first creamed the butter and sugar in a food processor, then added the eggs, bananas, vanilla processed then add the dry ingredients just to mix in. I used peanut butter and chocolate chips. After baking I poured some banana rum over it and let it soak in. Thanks!
