Method
1 Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Melt the butter and add to a bowl with the mashed bananas, maple syrup, vanilla and egg.
2 Mix well and add the flour and baking powder. Fold in the chocolate chips. Line a square baking tin with baking paper (approx 8×8) and pour in the mixture.
3 Bake in the oven for 20 mins. Make the chocolate glaze by mixing all the ingredients in a bowl.
4 Allow the banana bread to cool completely before icing.
5 Once cool – ice and cut into squares… and ENJOY
