Time 1h30m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1/2 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (3-4 very ripe bananas)
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grease and flour a loaf pan.
  • Combine sugar and butter in a large bowl and stir until uniform. Add eggs one at a time, and stir to incorporate. Add oats, banana, buttermilk and vanilla; stir until uniform.
  • Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl; stir with a fork to blend. Add flour mixture to banana mixture one third at a time; stir until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until loaf is dark brown and a cake tester comes out clean.
  • Cool bread in pan for 10 minutes, and then run a knife along edges to loosen, turn out of baking pan and cool on a rack. Makes one loaf.
  • Tip: You can also make this into muffins-bake muffins for 20 minutes. You'll get about 12 muffins or 20 mini muffins.
  • Tip: If you're only going to purchase one kind of oatmeal, you should buy the old-fashioned or large-flake oatmeal. To turn them into the "quick-cooking" oatmeal called for in this recipe, pulse them in a food processor, or place in a resealable plastic bag and rub them between your hands until they're broken into small bits.
