This is the original chocolate chip banana bread that Mom and I have been making for years. I usually omit the nuts because I have many friends who love this bread who do not have the same love for nuts. I make mini loaves with these and give them as gifts at Christmas time.
2 C. unsifted all purpose flour
1 C. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 C. mashed ripe bananas (about 3 small)
1/2 C. shortening
2 eggs
1 C. mini semi sweet morsels
1/2 C. chopped walnuts
Grease bottom only of 9x5x3 inch loaf pan; set aside. Combine all ingredients except the chips and walnuts in a large mixer bowl, blend well on medium speed. Stir in mini chips and walnyts.
Pour into prepared pan. Bake at 350 degress for 60 to 70 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack.
