Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 0.666 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
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 with a fork until smooth.
Stir in the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined.
Add the eggs and pure vanilla extract to the banana mixture, whisking together until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and enjoy your moist chocolate chip banana bread!
