1/2 cup sourdough starter* active or discard
1.5 cups all purpose flour
1/3 cup butter melted
3/4 cup honey* or sugar see notes
2 eggs
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips You could also use regular chocolate chips or chocolate chunks

In a large bowl or a bowl of a stand mixer, mix together melted butter, honey, flour, and sourdough starter.
Cover and allow to ferment for 12 to 24 hours. (optional)
The next day preheat oven to 375 degrees. Great loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
Add vanilla extract, baking soda, eggs, and salt to the fermented batter.
Start mixing all the ingredients together with the paddle attachment or a whisk.
Once the batter starts coming together, fold in chocolate chips, and mix. Breaking up any more large lumps.
Pour into prepared loaf pan.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Flip onto baking rack and allow to cool. A plate works well, too.

You can make this recipe without the long fermentation. See instructions in post above.

Substitute sugar for the honey. Add an extra 1/2 cup of sourdough starter for added moisture.

If the bread starts to get too dark and it has not finished baking, top the loaf with parchment paper or tin foil.
