Been going to the Culver City location since my sister was in cooking school. This second location, in Costa Mesa, opened in November.

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

nobody@flickr.com (ai pohaku) — Tue, 15 Jan 2013 15:57:59 -0800

Ingredients:

1 cup butter
1 ¾ cups sugar
3 large eggs
5 mashed bananas
2 ½ cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 cup walnuts
1 cup chocolate chips

Recipe:

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and bananas. Add sifted dry ingredients. Add nuts and chocolate chips. I like to use a wooden spoon and mix the stuff the old fashioned way. Pour into greased loaf pans (four small loaf pans). Bake 350 F for 45-60 minutes. Insert toothpick or sharp knife in center of loaf. This should come out clean.

Baking tip:

Toast walnuts on a baking sheet for about 10 minutes before adding to the recipe.

Photo tip:

Try to use muted tones like antique white colored linens instead of bright colors used here that may detract from the sweet baked chocolaty banana goodness.
