  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×5 loaf pan with nonstick spray. Line the bottom and up the short sides with a strip of parchment paper. Spray again with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl mash 2 of the bananas with a fork, leaving them slightly lumpy.
  • Slice the remaining banana thinly, and set aside.
  • In a large bowl stir together the butter and sugar.
  • Mix in the eggs and vanilla and stir until smooth.
  • Add the sour cream, mashed bananas, baking soda, and salt, and stir until blended.
  • Next mix in the flour until incorporated.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, walnuts, and sliced banana.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, and then using the parchment paper as handles, carefully lift the banana bread out of the pan to cool on a wire rack.
