8 servings
Servings4
1¾ cups all-purpose flour (210g)
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup sugar (150g)
½ cup unsalted butter (room temperature, 113g)
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla (5ml)
3 very ripe bananas (mashed, 1 1/2 cups)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (180g)

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

Whole wheat flour adds more fiber and nutrients.

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

Coconut oil is a healthier fat option.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

Honey is a natural sweetener with additional nutrients.

1

Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with baking spray.

2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

3

In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar and butter together on medium-high speed until fluffy and pale in color, about 3 minutes.

4

Mix in the eggs one at a time, stop and scrape down the bowl, then beat in the vanilla extract. Mix in the mashed bananas. (I like to mash the bananas with a fork so they are still a bit chunky.)

5

With the mixer on low, add the dry ingredients and mix together until almost combined.

6

Reserve a handful of the chocolate chips and stir the rest into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, and sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips on top.

7

Bake for 60 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove and finish cooling on a wire rack.
