Ingredients

3 - ripe bananas
2 cups - all-purpose flour
7 tablespoons - unsalted butter
1 ½ tablespoons - milk
3 tablespoons - brown sugar
½ cup - white sugar
½ cup - chocolate chips
½ cup - heart sprinkles
2 - eggs
1 ½ teaspoons - baking powder
pinch - salt
1 tsp - vanilla extract

Instructions

In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the melted butter and mix well. Stir in the eggs, followed by the vanilla extract.Add the brown sugar and white sugar and mix until fully combined. Next, add the flour and baking powder and gently fold everything together until just combined. Do not overmix. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips and heart-shaped sprinkles evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into a lined loaf pan. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips and heart sprinkles on top. Bake at 180°C (top & bottom heat) for about 55 minutes.
After 45 minutes, loosely cover the loaf with aluminum foil to prevent overbrowning.
Remove from the oven and let the banana bread cool in the pan. Slice once fully cooled for clean cuts and the best texture.
