Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 bananas (very ripe, mashed (1.5 cups))
  • 6 Tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled (3/4 stick))
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt ((or plain regular yogurt))
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 12 ounces chocolate chips ((one bag))

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350F with the rack in the middle position.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the mashed banana, butter, eggs, yogurt, and vanilla extract.
  • Generously coat a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
  • Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture until it is just combined. Some chunks and streaks is okay, and it will be thick.
  • Save 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips and set aside. Mix the remaining chocolate chips into the batter (approximately 1 1/4 cups).
  • Spread the batter into the loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup of chocolate chips across the top.
  • Bake in the oven at 350F until cooked through, approximately 50-60 minutes. A toothpick or cake pick inserted in the middle should come out with just a few crumbs.
  • Remove from oven. Let the bread sit in the pan for 10 minutes, then flip out and let cool on a cooling rack complete, approximately 1 hour.
