Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips
Banana bread is one of my family's favorite afternoon snacks. And this moist banana bread recipe is one of our favorites, because it is chock full of bananas, plus chocolate chips and walnuts.
Choose overripe, even black, bananas for this recipe. When you do, you will be rewarded with a sweet, moist banana bread.
