INGREDIENTS:
4 overly ripe, mashed bananas
3 eggs
3/4 cup (180 ml) of canola oil
¼ cup (60 ml) of water
½ cup (100g) of sugar *I find this is enough sugar if adding the chocolate chips but if you have a sweet tooth I would increase it to 3/4 cup (150g)
1 tbsp (15 ml) vanilla
2 ½ cups (300 g) of flour
1/2 teaspoon (5 ml) salt
2 teaspoons (10 ml) baking soda
½ cup (75 g) of bittersweet chocolate,
chopped ½ cup (75 g) of Pecans or Walnuts
METHOD:
Preheat oven to 350F (176C) degrees. Spray a 9” x 5" (23cm x 13cm) loaf pan with baking spray. In a medium bowl mix dry ingredients and set aside. In a large bowl mix wet ingredients until combined. Combine the dry into the wet, 1/3 at a time, being careful not to over mix! (Or you will have tough bread!) Fold in the chocolate chips and nuts. Pour into a loaf pan. Bake for 55 mins or until a toothpick comes out clean. If bread starts to brown too much on the top, cover with foil and continue to bake until cooked through. Slice into thick slices and serve
