Calories: 365kcal
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2-3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 3 large eggs, slightly beaten
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° and have ready one standard-sized loaf pan, greased and dusted with flour. See the instructions below if using smaller loaf pans.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Then, add the butter, sugar, brown sugar, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla and mix well using a handheld mixer or a whisk.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Add in ¾ cup of the chocolate chips and stir once more. Add the batter to the loaf pan and sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top.
- Bake for 40 minutes. Add a tent of aluminum foil on top of the bread, and bake for 20-25 minutes longer, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Transfer the banana bread to a cooling rack and allow to cool 15-20 minutes. Then, turn the bread out (if desired), slice, and enjoy!
Notes
If you are using two small loaf pans, grease them and dust with flour. When you've finished making the batter, divide it amongst the pans and bake for 35 minutes.
