Banana-Chip Bars

To be honest, I haven't actually MADE this one.  A co worker made it and I asked for the recipe because I liked them so much.  That was YEARS ago.... One of oh so many I still have to get around to making :).  But I have at least tried them!
½ cup margarine
2/3 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed banana 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Soften margarine. Beat in brown sugar and sugar. Stir in egg and mashed banana. Sift flour, salt, and baking powder together and stir in. Stir in chips. Bake in 10x15 pan at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

Banana Banana Bread


Original recipe yield:1 - 9x5 inch loaf

INGREDIENTS
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 1/3 cups mashed overripe bananas

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.  In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended. Stir banana mixture into flour mixture; stir just to moisten. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
Bake in preheated oven for 1 hr and 15 minutes, or till toothpick in center comes out clean. I left the other info, just to give you more options.
Let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.
 
Next time I plan to sprinkle brown sugar over the top before baking.
