INGREDIENTS

• 5 very ripe bananas about 1 2/3 cup

• ¾ cup brown sugar

• ¼ cup oil any type- I use coconut

• ¼ cup milk

• 2 eggs

• 1 ¾ cup flour

• 1 tsp baking soda

• ½ tsp salt

• 1 tsp cinnamon

• 1 cup mini chocolate chips divided

TO MAKE

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 15×10.5" pan with non-stick spray and set aside. You can also divide the batter between an 8x8" pan AND standard loaf pan like I do.

2. Peel bananas and mash well. Stir in brown sugar, oil, milk and eggs until combined. Add in dry ingredients and stir. Fold in 1/2 the chocolate chips.

3. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle remaining chips on top.

4. Bake 21-25 minutes, until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely and cut into squares. Enjoy!
