Ingredients

  • ½ cup - salted butter*
  • ¾ cup - brown sugar
  • 2 - eggs
  • 1 tsp - vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups - ripe bananas
  • 1 ½ cups - all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons - baking soda
  • ½ tsp - salt
  • 1 cup - semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325℉. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with oil and line it with parchment paper, letting the edges hang over the sides of the pan.
  2. Place the melted butter and brown sugar in a large bowl and whisk until combined. Add the mashed bananas, eggs, and vanilla and continue mixing.
  3. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until combined. Add to the combined wet ingredients alongside the chocolate chips and mix just until no lumps remain - be careful not to overmix!
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Let cool for 5 minutes and then lift the loaf out of the pan using the parchment paper as handles and let cool on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing to serve warm with butter or let cool fully before putting away. Enjoy!
