This Banana cake with chocolate chips is one of the tastiest I have made lately. It is not as tall as others I’ve done before, however it has texture that is moist and very tasty. It is perfect as a snack, to enjoy with a nice cup of tea or coffee, for breakfast or during the afternoon.
A great thing about this Banana cake with chocolate chips is that you can actually replace ingredients to your liking, and in the list of ingredients on the recipe I have explained some alternatives. Anyway, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to send me a note.
This is a good alternative to use those bananas that are overly ripe. And as an idea, you can also replace the chocolate chips with almonds or chopped walnuts.
