    I have the same thoughts as your son when I see bananas start to get a little spotty. 🙂 This looks really good, I’m excited to give it a try!

    Chocolate and banana is one of my very favourite combinations, but the addition of sea salt is positively genius! It just so happens that I have some overripe bananas sitting my fruit bowl, so guess what I’m going to be baking up tomorrow? 🙂

    Hi… I want to make this recipe but I have some questions….

    The recipe calls for 3 large bananas, mashed….can you give me some idea what this would be in cups?

    You mention 1 eggs & in the directions you said In a large mixing bowl, mix together the butter, oil, bananas, and eggs…..is there more than one egg?

    Can this recipe be split into smaller loaf pans. I would think it would be ok.

    Please reply. Thank you so much

      Hi Patricia! For the bananas, I would say about 1 1/2 cups.
      The s in egas was a typo, I’m sorry. Just one egg 🙂
      And yes! I have 3 mini loaf pans (not sure the exact measurements) and it makes 3 of those!
      Hope you enjoy the bread!

    I started adding sea salt to almost all of my dessert recipes a couple of years ago and I’ll never stop… it makes such a huge difference in the taste and brings out the chocolate flavor so well! Can’t wait to try this recipe!
