2 tbsp chocolate chips (or other chips or toffee bits)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325°F and coat loaf pan with nonstick spray (or line with parchment paper).
Combine bananas through flax in a mixing bowl, stirring until smooth.
Add baking soda, salt, and flour. Stir until just combined.
Spoon into loaf pan and smooth the top.
Combine oats, pecan pieces, and chocolate chips in a food processor. Process until smooth.
Sprinkle oat mixture over top and press into loaf using the flat side of a knife, making 3 stripes.
Bake for 60 minutes, or until a tooth pick inserted into the loaf comes out clean.
Notes
The top will be a little sticky if you opt for chocolate chips. If serving to vegans, opt for agave if they do not consume honey. If you'd like a lighter texture, increase the baking soda to 1½ tsp.
