Description
A comforting banana bread enriched with mini chocolate chips for a deliciously sweet and indulgent treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (1 stick, 113 g) melted butter
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth. Whisk in the brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle half the chocolate chips over it.
- Add the remaining batter and gently smooth the top. Sprinkle the rest of the chocolate chips over the surface.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through. The loaf is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
