Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 3 large Ripe bananas, mashed
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
- 0.75 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until mostly smooth. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract, and whisk until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
Carefully fold in the blueberries and chocolate chips (and walnuts, if using) until evenly distributed in the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Super Antioxidant Blueberry Banana Chocolate Chip Bread as is, or toasted with a smear of butter or cream cheese!
