  • 3 medium over-ripe bananas smashed to almost liquid
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Optional: 1 cup mini chocolate chips 2 tablespoon set aside

Instructions

  4. In a small bowl, peel and mash the over ripe bananas until they are almost a liquid.
  5. To the mixing bowl, add the bananas, flour and baking soda. Mix until well combined, there may still be lumps, that is ok.
