White Chocolate Banana Bread

Yum.  That's all I can say about this bread.  I made it a couple weeks ago and David ate half the loaf the following day!  The only unfortunate thing about this bread, is the bananas don't ripen fast enough!

White Chocolate Banana Bread

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 (heaping) teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 egg, beaten
3 medium ripened (black) bananas
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup white chocolate chips


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan.


In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.  Set aside.


In a medium bowl, mash bananas with fork until no lumps are visible.  Add beaten egg, sugar, and oil.  Stir well.  Pour over flour mixture and stir until just moistened.  Lumps are OKAY!


Fold in white chocolate chips.  Pour batter into baking dish.  Bake for 45-50 minutes.  Or, until toothpick (or, butter knife in my case) inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.  


Surprisingly, this bread tastes best after it's been completely cooled!


Enjoy!
