As many of you are getting to know Kailee has a huge love for anything blueberries, Kristopher not so much (I can sneak them into some foods and he does not really mind, but will not really eat them plain, he will eat them in bread as long as there are, as he calls it, 'no chunks'). Kristopher loves chocolate, anything chocolate, and since dark chocolate is extremely good for you, I really do not mind giving him some once in awhile. In order to make the bread a little bit 'healthier' for him, I have added almost everything I did in my Fluffy Blueberry Bread except the blueberries.
Make these into 4 mini loafs or into 24-48 muffin breads! The choice is yours, chose wisely!! 😀
You Will Need:
2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
2 Eggs, room temp
1/2 Cup Butter, room temp
1/4 Cup Milk, room temp
2 Bananas, ripe
1 tsp Salt
1 Cup Sugar
1-1 1/2 Cups Chocolate Chips
Cream the softened butter together with the sugar (coconut sugar or regular organic sugar work well here)
Add eggs, vanilla, and milk, and cream together
Add the ripened bananas and mix until there is chunks but not HUGE ones (I love looking at the bread and seeing all the small chunks of banana)
Add dry ingredients, except the chocolate chips and whisk well, until combined. I did not have my kitchen aid mixer so I used an good old hand mixer and whisk
Fold in chocolate chips
In your buttered dish add 3/4's full batter. Oven at 350 bake 35-40 minutes or toothpick insert is clean, take out of oven and cool 7 minutes, remove from pan and continue to cool until fully cooled
There you go! Cut and enjoy plain or warmed with butter. Pop remaining loaves in freeze, freeze completely, bag in zip-locks and label. These little suckers go fast so be ready to have NOTHING left! These are amazing little gifts for the upcoming Holiday's.
