We have a family cabin in Northern Wisconsin where all of my in laws get together for a week every summer. This year my mother in law didn’t make it up there so she overnighted a chocolate chip banana bread bundt cake to us. It was SO GOOD!! It was gone in 10 minutes, but I wanted more. I ended up making it the day we got home from vacation and here it is.
I actually think this is easier than regular banana bread, only one pan to clean instead of 2 or 3.
A potato masher works great to mash the bananas. This cakes pretty flexible, you can leave it plain, add chips, walnuts or both. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, drizzle with chocolate or cream cheese frosting…..it all sounds so yummy!

Omg what a great and easy recipe!!! I made two this morning and served them within hours. I made one with chocolate chips and walnuts and the other plain (just in case of nut allergies). Only three slices left out of two cakes! Prep was quick and easy and I love the outter crust and the fact that it doesnt call for a bunch of butter or sugar!!! I LOVE THIS RECIPE!!!
