Banana Split Bread
This month, I'm jumping into another cool challenge, the Fantastical Food Fight! Each month a theme or ingredient is chosen, and all the participants make something and share it. This month's ingredient is bananas.
We are huge, huge banana bread fans. I am constantly pinning new variations to try. After looking through them for a while, I finally settled on Banana Split Bread from Taste of Home. I made a few changes. I subbed 1 cup mini chocolate chips instead of the 2 cups of regular, it's what I had on hand.
The recipe calls for walnuts, and my guys are nut allergic. In some cases, you can just leave them out, but what I've found with quick breads and other baked goods, crushed Rice Krispies makes a great substitute!
I love that it makes two loaves, one for now, and one to freeze. I wrapped the second loaf in Press N Seal, and put it in the freezer until it was solid. You can then vaccuum seal it, or use a ziptop freezer bag.
Thanks so much to Sarah for hosting this Banana #FantasticalFoodFight! Be sure to go and check out what everyone made using the links below. Do you want to join in the fun? Check out how here: http://www.fantasticalsharing.com/p/fantastical-food-fight.html

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 4 medium)
2 cans crushed pineapple (8 ounces each) drained
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (12 ounces)- used 1c mini choc chips
1 jar red maraschino cherries (10 ounces) chopped and well drained
1 cup chopped walnuts - I subbed crushed Rice Krispies cereal
In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with bananas and pineapple. Fold in the chocolate chips, cherries and walnuts.
