Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour (you can also use 2/3 white flour, 1/3 whole wheat flour)
• 1/3 cup white sugar
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (or substitute raisins)
• 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium)
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup oil

In a bowl, combine dry ingredients and stir in nuts and chocolate chips.

In a larger mixing bowl, combine bananas, eggs, vanilla and oil. Use a whisk to mix well. Fold in the dry ingredients, mixing only until ingredients are moistened.

Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting toothpick in centre of loaf - when it comes out dry, loaf is ready.

Cool and serve. Once completely cooled, Make sure to store in airtight container or wrap tightly.

Note: You may add 1/8 tsp. of cinnamon to the dry ingredients - it seems to bring out the taste of the bananas - good idea if you like cinnamon.
