½ cup cashew nuts (optional)
...½ cup choc chips (semi sweetened)
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour (or cake flour)
¾ cup granulated white sugar
1 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon ( you can use ½ teaspoon if you don’t like a strong cinnamon flavor)
2 large eggs - lightly beaten
½ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 ripe large bananas (approximately 1 pound or 454 grams), mashed well (about 1-1/2 cups)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2. Heat a pan and add one teaspoon of butter and roast the cashew nuts till they turn brown. – set aside for 5 mints to cool.
3. In a large bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nuts.
4. In a medium-sized bowl combine the mashed bananas, beaten eggs, melted butter, and vanilla. Give a quick mix and with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, lightly fold the wet ingredients (banana mixture) into the dry ingredients just until combined and the batter is thick and chunky.
