Whole Wheat Banana Bread




Banana Bread is one of my all time favorites!  This is something I grew up with thanks to my mom and Na-na!  Wayyy back in the day, they each had this board hanging on the wall in their kitchens with a Bermuda Banana Bread recipe on it which they always followed.  The first few times I made Banana Bread, I too followed their recipe.  Over the years, I have been taking that recipe and changing a few things.  I prefer the bread plain but this time, for my boyfriend, I added in dark chocolate chips and walnuts.  I also used a combination of whole wheat and white flour.  Hope you enjoy!!


The original ingredient list in the picture below!   My ingredient list is a modified version of this.

Ingredients:

1/3 cup melted butter
3/4 cup sugar 
2 beaten eggs
3 smashed bananas
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda 
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/4 cup chopped walnuts.  


Directions:

The original directs you to mix ingredients in the order listed and bake in a moderate oven for 40 mins.  I did exactly that and heated the oven to 350 degrees.  40 mins was the perfect time too.
