Ingredients
  

For the Bread
  • 3 medium Ripe Bananas The riper the bananas, the sweeter and moister your bread will be.
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Feel free to substitute with a gluten-free flour blend if needed.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda Acts as a leavening agent.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Balances the sweetness.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Adds richness; can swap with coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Consider reducing this or substituting with your favorite sweetener.
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar Infuses deeper flavor and moisture.
  • 2 large Eggs Use room temperature eggs for best results.
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt Can be replaced with dairy-free yogurt.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Elevates the flavor profile.
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips Tossing them in flour prevents them from sinking.

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, peel and mash the ripe bananas until smooth with a few small lumps.
  3. Add melted unsalted butter to the mashed bananas and stir until thoroughly combined.
  4. Mix in granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until the mixture is well blended.
  5. Stir in sour cream or Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, folding gently until just combined.
  8. Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  10. Bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
