Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.
Whisk in the egg, low-fat yogurt, vanilla extract, and honey until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix as this can result in dense banana bread.
Fold the mini semi-sweet chocolate chips into the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
