Description

This Super Moist Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is a deliciously soft and flavorful treat that’s perfect for breakfast, snack, or dessert. Made with ripe bananas and studded with semi-sweet chocolate chips, this bread is easy to prepare and loved by all ages.


Ingredients

Scale

Banana Bread

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter with the mashed bananas, stirring until well blended and smooth.
  3. Add Sugar and Eggs: Mix in the granulated sugar thoroughly. Then add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture is fully incorporated.
  4. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Sprinkle the baking soda and salt evenly over the banana mixture. Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour just until combined; avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the batter, making sure they are evenly distributed but not overmixed.
  6. Prepare for Baking: Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula to ensure even baking.
  7. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating the bread is fully cooked.
  8. Cool: Remove the banana bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and moisture.
  • Do not overmix after adding the flour to avoid a dense loaf.
  • Make sure to grease the pan well to prevent sticking.
  • Check the bread at around 55 minutes as ovens may vary; adjust baking time accordingly.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
