Here's a chocolate-dotted version of classic banana bread. Jars of the layered mix always go over big during the holidays. —Edie DeSpain, Logan, Utah

2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

I thought the recipe in a jar idea was great for a gift, so I'm making this for my coworkers for the holidays. Of course, I had to test the recipe first and the muffins were delicious! I didn't have any problems with the batter being too dry. I will definitely be making these again.

The ratios of this receipe are wrong--batter ends up too dry--I added a 3rd Banana and about 1/2 c milk
