I grew up on this bread and it is a family favorite. You can always omit the chocolate chips and add chopped walnuts if you want. But, I always go for the chocolate!
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1/2 cup butter shortening
(If you do not like using shortening you can substitute with butter).
4 eggs
4 ripe bananas
2 tsp soda
1 cup cold water
1 1/2 cups sugar
5 cups flour
2tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla
1 bag chocolate chips
Mash bananas and combine with water and soda. Set aside. Cream shortening and sugar together. Add eggs 1 at a time. Mix dry ingredients together in a separate bowl. Alternate dry mixture with the banana mixture into the sugar mixture. Add vanilla and chocolate chips. Grease bread pans. This will make 4 regular size loaves or 8 mini loaves. I really like the mini loaves the best. Bake at 360 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown and center has cooked completely through.
