Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a mixing bowl, add all the ingredients and stir together until you have your batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking times may vary, so keep an eye on your bread in the last few minutes.
Enjoy!

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and moist texture.

Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bread tender and fluffy. Mix until just combined.

For extra gooey chocolate chips, fold some in right before baking and sprinkle a few on top of the batter before placing in the oven.

Let the bread cool completely before slicing to avoid crumbling.

This recipe freezes well—slice before freezing for easy grab-and-go portions.
