Banana Chip Cake

After my near heart attack last week over wasted bananas, I pulled some frozen bananas out of my freezer and made Banana Chip Cake. This is the recipe I use most often when faced with black bananas. I especially like this recipe because I can mix it up quickly with a spoon and it easily stores right inside the pan without dirtying additional containers. This is breakfast food at our house; but, I imagine that it would be good with chocolate frosting on top as a dessert.

  

Banana Chip Cake

½ cup melted butter

1 cup raw sugar

2 eggs

1 cup mashed bananas (3 medium sized)

1 tsp. vanilla

2 cups white whole wheat flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. salt

½ cup buttermilk

½ cup mini chocolate chips

Stir together butter, sugar, eggs, bananas and vanilla. Add flour, baking soda, salt, buttermilk, and chocolate chips. Stir until combined. Pour into a greased 9X13 pan and bake at 350˚ for 25-30 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.  This can be served warm, however it stores well for later.
