PEELABANANA: CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA BREAD for Santa: Retro Ad & Recipe

O.K. I know Bananas don't jump to mind when you think Santa and Christmas, but the United Fruit Company thought it should. Check out this cool Retro 1967 Ad from the United Fruit Company. There's a recipe for Banana Quick Bread on the ad, but I am posting my favorite Banana Bread recipe--with Chocolate Chips, of course. Santa can use the extra energy from the chocolate. Want to be festive? Double the recipe and bake it in a holiday bundt pan.

PEELABANANA: CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA BREAD

Ingredients
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup milk
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar

  1. The only way I make banana bread is with chocolate chips. Except I put a lot more chocolate chips in than this recipe.
