A couple of days ago I was cleaning up the kitchen when I saw it. A huge pile of super-ripe bananas just sitting there. Looking so sad, so unused, so unloved. Right that second I resolved to use them for good. Reece happened to be hanging out with me and saw me eyeing those bananas and asked “Does this mean we get to make banana bread today?”

Righty-o my son!

I tell you. This kid gets so excited over banana bread. I personally think it’s his love of smashing the bananas but he sure does a stellar job in the eating banana bread department as well 🙂

5 SECRETS TO GETTING DINNER ON THE TABLE...FAST!

We got right to work and after a few suggestions ended up with Chocolate Chip Zucchini Banana Bread. A thing of great beauty my friends and tastes even better. Reece could hardly wait for this bread to finish baking. I could hardly blame it – it smells AMAZING while it’s baking! He kept asking me…

How much longer? How many more minutes? Was it done yet?

Apparently it’s been long enough that Reece forgot that it takes an hour to bake and then of course, requires a cooling off period. Yeah. Reece wasn’t feeling that.

This bread was sliced almost straight out of the oven and I have to say, good call on that Reece. This banana bread is so incredibly moist and delicious and just perfectly sweet.

    Can these loaves be frozen? If so, any special instructions?

    Any special instructions for high altitude? I live in Denver (mile high).

    Is wheat flour required, or can I use only all-purpose flour. What difference will it have on the bread?

    Hi! I’m gathering ingredients to make this bread today, and I have a question. The recipe calls for butter, softened. In the instructions it says just to add it to the banana and mix until well combined. Does this mean I need cream the butter into the banana mixture? I’m worried with all that moisture the butter will not mix in well. Or should the butter be melted?
    Thanks in advance!
