Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter. Pour the batter into a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top if desired.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture.
- Add Greek yogurt or sour cream for extra moistness.
- Ensure not to overmix to maintain a tender crumb.
- Bake at the right temperature and check doneness with a toothpick.
