Ingredients
Scale
- 3 to 4 very ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Stir in melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and Greek yogurt until smooth.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the chocolate chips, saving a handful to sprinkle on top.
- Pour batter into prepared pan, top with remaining chocolate chips.
- Bake for 55–65 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- For a bakery-style finish, sprinkle coarse sugar or sea salt on top before baking. To make muffins instead of a loaf, divide batter into muffin cups and bake for 18–22 minutes.
