Print Recipe

A simple, comforting banana bread recipe made in one bowl with chocolate chips, perfect for beginners and quick baking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 ½ cups (190 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup (75 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (130 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the bananas in your mixing bowl using a fork until smooth but still a bit chunky.
  3. Add melted butter to the bananas and stir to combine.
  4. Mix in sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Sprinkle baking soda and salt over the mixture, then add the flour. Gently fold everything together until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly, reserving a handful to sprinkle on top if desired.
  7. Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Scatter reserved chocolate chips on top.
  8. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use ripe bananas with brown spots for best flavor. Do not overmix after adding flour to keep bread tender. Tent with foil if top browns too fast. Let bread cool completely before slicing to avoid crumbling. Grease or line pan to prevent sticking.
