Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 pieces ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg, beaten

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Add-ins

  • 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or your choice)

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 4×8 inch loaf pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
  2. Mash Bananas and Mix Butter: In a large mixing bowl, use a fork to mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in the melted butter until well combined.
  3. Add Soda, Salt, and Vanilla: Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the banana mixture, then stir to incorporate. Add the vanilla extract and mix evenly.
  4. Mix Sugar and Egg: Stir in the sugar and the beaten egg until the mixture is smooth and uniformly blended.
  5. Add Flour and Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour to avoid over-mixing, which can toughen the bread. Carefully fold in the chocolate chips to distribute them evenly.
  6. Pour Batter and Bake: Pour the prepared batter into the greased loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean indicating the bread is cooked through.
  8. Cool: Let the banana bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
  • Do not over-mix the batter once the flour is added to keep the bread moist and tender.
  • You can substitute the chocolate chips with nuts, dried fruits, or omit for a plain banana bread.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
