Preparation

Step 1

*Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
*I use my KitchenAid with the whisk attachment to mash the three bananas.
*In a separate large bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix together.
*Back in the KitchenAid...switch to the paddle attachment and add the egg, melted butter (make sure it has cooled so that you don't cook the egg), and the milk.
*Mix a little, but not completely and then add the rest of the dry. As always, be careful not to overmix.
*Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
*Spread the batter into your greased pan and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes.
