CHOC CHIP BANANA BREAD
INGREDIENTS • 2 large ripe bananas • 1 ½ cups of self-raising flour • 2 eggs • 4 tablespoons butter • ¼ cup of vegetable oil • ½ cup of chocolate chips • ¼ cup of sugar • 1 tablespoon vanilla essence METHOD 1. Start by preheating oven to 180°C. Peel and smash bananas with a fork in a small bowl. Set aside. Beat eggs then add sugar and softened butter. Follow by adding oil and flour in bits. The mixture will be sticky at this point. 2. Add in mashed bananas which will loosen up the mixture. No need for milk or any liquid in this batter. (Butter is for flavour and oil will help make the cake extra moist.) 3. Mix in vanilla essence and choc chips. Follow by putting batter in a greased loaf tin to bake at 180 degrees for 30 minutes, then at 170 degrees for 10 minutes. 4. Remove and put on a rack to cool down. Serve with your favourite cup of tea/ coffee.
