Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Chopped walnuts (or pecans)
- 0.75 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Melt the unsalted butter and add it to the mashed bananas. Mix well.
Stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Sift or whisk to ensure even distribution.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should just come together.
Gently fold in the chopped walnuts and semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy your Banana Nut Chocolate Chip Bread! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
