Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
  • 0.25 cups vegetable oil
  • 0.75 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3-4 medium bananas)
Add-Ins
  • 1 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this bowl aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until everything is well blended.
  4. Add the mashed bananas to the wet mixture and stir until incorporated.
  5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Gently stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Baking
  1. Bake for 50–60 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover it with foil and continue baking.
Cooling
  1. Let the bread cool in the pan until it is slightly warm or at room temperature before slicing.

Notes

Store the banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and keep it in the refrigerator for a week or freeze it for up to three months. Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness. Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bread light and fluffy. You can add nuts, like walnuts or pecans, for extra crunch.
