This recipe delivers a perfectly moist and tender banana bread loaf, featuring melted chocolate chips. It is simple to make in one bowl, making cleanup easy. This is the best way to use up your ripe bananas for breakfast or a snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 very ripe medium bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 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, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until combined.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Stir in the mashed bananas and milk until just mixed.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix. A few streaks of flour are fine.
  7. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  9. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. 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 completely brown for the best flavor and moisture.
  • For an extra tender crumb, you can substitute 1/4 cup of the butter with 1/4 cup of vegetable oil.
  • If you prefer not to use chocolate chips, substitute them with 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans for a classic taste.
