Banana Bread

I never used to be a fan of banana bread...until... I started adding chocolate chips to it.  Everything is better with chocolate!

Here is a recipe I use often

2cup flour
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
pinch of salt
1/2 cup apple sauce (to replace 2 beaten eggs)
1/2 cup softened dairy butter or margarine --I interchange the terms butter and margarine all the time(fleishman's unsalted)
1 or 2 very ripe bananas mashed --I've made this both ways and each time it comes out delish!
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup dairy free choc chips (optional) I always use "Enjoy Life"

Preheat oven 350
grease bread pan (I use baking Pam)
In a large bowl, mix flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon

In a separate medium bowl cream together brown sugar and butter (if your butter is in the fridge right before you decide to make this like mine always is, soften in the microwave for a couple of seconds and don't tell Martha Stewart)
Add applesauce and bananas

Add wet ingredients to dry until just moistened and fold in chocolate chips
Pour into bread pan and bake for about an hour.
