I had some over-ripe bananas hanging around and banana bread sounded like a mighty-fine idea. And banana bread with chocolate chips? Oh man. It doesn’t get much better than that.
- 2 bananas
- 2 tbsp canola oil
- 1/2 C maple syrup
- 1/2 C unsweetened apple sauce
- 2 C flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp baking soda
- vegan chocolate or carob chips (optional)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Mix all wet and dry ingredients separately. Be sure to thoroughly mush the bananas. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet. Result should be a thick dough.
Bake 30-35 minutes. Stick a knife in to see if it’s done.

Oy this sounds soooo super yummy and really simple!! I might have to make this today…its odd weather here in sunny California…cloudy and overcast
One tip I would like to share with the readers about bananas - when they get over ripe, just peel them and stick them in a zippie or tupperware…then into the freezer for later use in banana bread.
