Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Coat a loaf pan with cooking spray.

- Add bananas — mash them first.
- Add eggs, buttermilk, vanilla and salt. Stir to combine.
- Add flour and baking soda — don't over mix.
- Add in chocolate chips and/or blueberries. Note: flour the chocolate chips first so they don't sink — per Homer.

- Let cool — sooo good!
Notes
From the card: "Jax and I found this online + made June 2025 — was very good." Flouring the chocolate chips keeps them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
