Super Moist Banana Bread
I had posted a chocolate chip banana bread recipe way back in 2015, super tasty but a little bit on the less moist side as far as banana breads go. That recipe may well work at a lower altitude but this updated recipe is for a super moist banana bread (even at high altitude). I know there’re a few different preferences when it comes to banana bread. Some like their bread with walnuts or chocolate chips and others like their’s simply as is. How you prefer your bread is entirely up to you, this recipe works with any kinds of nut’s or no nuts at all without having to alter any of the other ingredients in the recipe. If you like a particular type of nut sub walnuts for your favorite, if you don’t want any nuts at all take them out altogether.
Mix the wet ingredients
Sift together the dry ingredients and make the banana mixture.
