Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour

• 2 large eggs
• 1½ tsp vanilla extract
• 3 ripe bananas, mashed

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C), and prepare a 9x5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Fold in the mashed bananas and chocolate chips, handling the mixture gently so as not to over mix or mash it down too much.
