Make moist, classic banana bread with chocolate chips using only one mixing bowl for easy cleanup.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until mostly smooth.
  3. Stir the melted butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract into the mashed bananas until combined.
  4. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt directly to the wet ingredients in the same bowl. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use bananas that are heavily spotted or almost black for the best flavor and moisture.
  • If you prefer a less sweet bread, reduce the sugar to 1/2 cup.
  • For a slightly firmer texture, you can substitute 1/4 cup of the butter with 1/4 cup of plain yogurt or sour cream.
