Chocolate chip cinnamon banana bread

Chocolate and bananas is a classic combination. I also really like chocolate with cinnamon, so I put everything together in one recipe. The cinnamon adds a hint of spice, but doesn't overpower the flavor of the chocolate and bananas.

Add eggs, beat to combine. Add banana, buttermilk and vanilla, beat to combine. Add flour mixture and stir until all of the ingredients are mixed together thoroughly. Stir in chocolate chips.
