Main Ingredients

  • 3-4 pieces ripe bananas, mashed The riper, the better!
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • a pinch salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Chill before mixing to retain shape.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  • In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas using a fork until smooth with a few small lumps.
  • Add the melted butter to the mashed bananas and mix well. Stir in the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until combined.
  • Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture, then stir in the flour until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; a few lumps are perfectly fine!
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Baking

  • Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Let the banana bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve warm with cream cheese or peanut butter. Pairs well with coffee or tea. For longer storage, slice and freeze.
