Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipes

PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Grease bread pan (if needed).
• Mash bananas with a fork.
• Soften butter in a microwave.
• Lightly beat eggs.
• Stir eggs, bananas, pumpkin puree and butter together until completely mixed.
• Mix in remaining ingredients (except the chocolate chips). Stir until batter is completely mixed.
• Add the chocolate chips to the batter. Stir in chips until fully mixed into batter.
• Pour batter into bread pan.
• Bake in the oven for 65 to 70 minutes.
• Take out of oven and let the banana bread cool down in the bread pan for 10 minutes. Do not remove the banana bread from the bread pan during this 10 minute cool down period. Use oven mitts as the bread pan will be very hot coming out of the oven.
• After 10 minutes, remove the banana bread from the bread pan. Use oven mitts. Place the banana bread on a cooling rack in order to completely cool. This cool down may take 1-2 hours. Gently slide a silicon spatula between the banana bread and the bread pan walls if the banana bread is stuck in the pan.
• Optional - If you want a more "chocolaty" top to your pumpkin banana bread... right after the 10 minute cool down when you remove the pumpkin banana bread from the bread pan (and while the pumpkin banana bread is still warm), you can gently press a handful of chocolate chips into the top of the pumpkin banana bread.
