Pumpkin Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips

Pumpkin Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips

3 very ripe bananas

⅔ cup Just Jan’s Homestyle Pumpkin Butter

1 egg

1 ½ cups flour

4 Tbsp Butter, melted and cooled

¼ cup dark brown sugar, packed

1 tsp baking soda

½ tsp baking powder

1 tsp vanilla

½ tsp kosher salt

1 cup chocolate chips divided (¾ cup for the batter and ¼ cup for the top)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Add the pumpkin butter and egg and either with the paddle attachment in a stand mixer or a fork mix thoroughly. Add the melted butter and vanilla, mix. In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients then incorporate them into the wet ingredients until blended. Stir in ¾ cup of the chocolate chips and pour batter into a prepared baking loaf pan. I greased mine with a little coconut oil. Top with the remaining chocolate chips and bake for 1 hour, 10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Cool, slice and try not to eat it all in one afternoon!
