Ingredients

• nonstick baking spray with flour (optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Brown butter until medium gold and set aside to cool. **See note below.

   Preheat oven to 350℉ and prep 2 loaf pans by spraying with nonstick baking spray.

3. 3

   Whisk together the dry ingredients together to make sure there are no lumps.

4. 4

   Pour melted butter over the top and blend with a stand/hand mixer until it forms small lumps resembling damp sand.

5. 5

   In a separate bowl combine the wet ingredients. Pour on top of the dry ingredients and mix on medium speed until a thick batter forms. Gently mix in the chocolate chips, reserving a few for the top if you want.
