There’s only one remedy for overripe bananas: baking. Bananas add a well-known but subtle flavor to almost any recipe. Enjoy this banana bread straight from the oven, or store it for another day. The extra-moist center makes it especially delicious even when packed in your dance bag.
Ingredients
- 3 bananas, ripened
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup avocado oil
- 1 tablespoon whole milk (may sub with a dairy-free alternative)
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (may sub with a dairy-free alternative)
Directions
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees (Fahrenheit). In a bowl, mash your bananas until consistent (some small chunks may still be present). Pour in the milk and mix. In a second bowl, whisk your sugar, oil, and eggs until unified. In a third bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Next, combine your liquid ingredients by folding your banana mixture into the oil mixture. Then slowly add your dry flour mixture and stir until completely mixed. Last, toss in your chocolate chips and bake for 35 minutes (more time may be needed depending on your oven). Let cool, serve, and enjoy!
