Moist Banana Bread With Coconut Oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, mash the bananas.

Add the coconut oil and sugar to the mashed bananas and mix well.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Stir in the chocolate chips, if using.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
