Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipe
Updated: Jun 10, 2019
Do you have any old bananas that are looking a little too brown to eat?
Save them in the freezer for banana bread!
Banana bread is a delicious dessert that goes quickly! This recipe is another family favourite.
I like to use whole wheat flour in my baking as it provides a slight fibre boost compared to white flour. You can also add walnuts or pumpkins seeds for extra crunch and extra nutrition, if you prefer!
