Servings: persons

5 cups whole wheat pastry flour
4 teaspoons baking soda (to neutralize acidity in honey)
2 teaspoons cinnamon (optional)
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup olive oil (Mild or Delicate)
1 ⅓ cups raw honey
4 large eggs
4 12-5 cups mashed bananas (about 9 overripe small to medium)
2 teaspoons vanilla (optional)
1 ½ cups chocolate chips (optional)
1 cup walnuts (optional)

1
Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl and set aside.
2
In food processor (or by hand) mix banana, olive oil, honey, eggs and vanilla.
3
Add banana mixture to flour mixture and stir just until combined.
4
Stir in chololate chips and walnuts if desired.
5
Preheat the oven to 325 and grease 3 4x8 loaf pans, evenly divide batter among the pans.
6
(I know this is odd but I preheat the oven last because it gives the banana flavour time to develop for a few minutes before it goes in, I use the time to wash out you bowls and tidy up.)
7
Bake at 325 for about 70 minutes.
8
Let cool for in pans for 20 minutes, then turn onto wire rack to cool.
9
When cool slice and serve or wrap individually and freeze to pack in lunches or impromtu picnics.
