Description
A super moist and flavorful chocolate chip banana bread that’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a delightful snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 & 1/2 cups (180g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1/4 cup (60mL) vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 & 1/2 cups (360g) mashed ripe bananas (about 3–4 medium bananas)
- 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9×5-inch loaf pan by greasing it and lining it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, eggs, and pure vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
- Add the mashed bananas to the wet mixture and stir gently until fully incorporated.
- Carefully fold in the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil.
- Let the banana bread cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
Notes
Use very ripe bananas for optimal flavor. Don’t overmix the batter to avoid a dense loaf. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
