Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (180g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (1 stick / 115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
  • ¼ cup (60mL) vegetable oil
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (360g) mashed ripe bananas (about 3-4 medium-sized bananas)
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan and line the bottom and sides with parchment paper, leaving a bit of parchment paper hanging over the sides to make it easier to pull the loaf out. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined. Add in the mashed bananas and mix.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Bake in the center of your preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (some melted chocolate on the skewer is fine, too!). If the loaf is browning too quickly, loosely tent the top with aluminum foil and continue baking until fully cooked through.
  7. Allow the bread to cool in the loaf pan until slightly warm or room temperature before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in dense banana bread.
  • Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and moisture.
  • If you want to add a nutty crunch, you can add ½ cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
  • For a dairy-free version, replace butter with plant-based butter or coconut oil, and use dairy-free chocolate chips.
  • Store leftover banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap tightly and refrigerate or freeze.
