I am so glad you are here. This easy, one-bowl banana bread recipe delivers incredibly moist results every time, making it the perfect comfort food for beginners or busy days. Use your overripe bananas to make this simple snack loaf.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 very ripe medium bananas, mashed (about 1 ½ cups)
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set this dry mixture aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter and brown sugar together until combined.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Add the mashed bananas to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix the bananas.
  6. Add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Use a spatula to gently fold the ingredients together until just combined. A few streaks of flour are fine.
  7. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  8. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan.
  9. Bake for 50 to 65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs attached.
  10. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • For the moistest loaf, use bananas that are heavily spotted or almost completely black.
  • If you do not have brown sugar, you can substitute granulated white sugar, but the brown sugar adds depth and moisture.
  • This recipe is excellent for using overripe bananas, preventing food waste.
