Coconut Chocolate Chip Banana Bread


The other day I was reading a cookbook (weird I know) and it got me thinking about how different families use different ingredients. Like cream of tartar kept showing up in all these recipes and I was like, "that's so interesting. I don't think my family even has one recipe with cream of tartar in it." You know what I mean?




For example, my husband's family uses lots of potatoes, cream cheese, and eggs. It's the greatest thing ever because those ingredient make delicious food and it always feels so Killpack-ish.

My family definitely has those common ingredients as well. You'll probably notice in these recipe that they commonly use butter, pecans, chocolate chips, hopefully some sort of fruit or vegetable and most likely more butter. Maybe it's just me, but I honestly believe chocolate chips and some good chopped pecans will make anything better!


So, my point in telling you this? Well congratulations, you found post of all posts. This Coconut Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is everything in my family. It combines all those ingredients we love (and crave continually) all in one easy recipe. Plus it includes four bananas so it's healthy right? ;)

My mom has been making this bread nonstop for quite some time. And let me tell you, there's a reason for that because it's just SO DANG GOOD! Enjoy!
