Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Directions

1. 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9 x 5 x 3 inch bread loaf pan; set aside.
2. 2In a large bowl using an electric mixer, cream softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, and beat until mixed.
3. 3Then in a separate medium bowl, whisk together: flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Add to the butter mixture, and mix until combined.
4. 4Mash up your ripe bananas in a small bowl using a spoon or fork. You can also use a blender or food processor to puree them. (note: freezing your bananas ripens and preserves them until you are ready to bake, it also softens them and they thaw within an hour or two)
5. 5Finally add the mashed bananas, greek yogurt, and vanilla extract to your mix; combine until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips, and pour into prepared pan.
6. 6Bake for 1hr. and 5 min, or until cake tester comes out clean. Let the loaf rest in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn onto baking rack to cool.
