A simple, quick, and easy one bowl banana bread recipe with chocolate chips that yields a soft, fluffy, and moist loaf perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 3/4 cups (220 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup (130 g) chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until mostly smooth with a few small lumps.
  3. Add the melted and slightly cooled unsalted butter to the bananas and stir gently to combine.
  4. Mix in the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and uniform, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt evenly over the wet mixture. Fold them in gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed without breaking.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top lightly.
  8. Bake for 55-60 minutes, starting to check at 55 minutes by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes before removing it to cool completely.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense bread. Use ripe bananas with brown spots for best flavor and natural sweetness. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil after 40 minutes. Let the bread cool before slicing for best texture. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil. For gluten-free, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend and add xanthan gum if needed.
