Sharing is caring!

This Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is soft and moist with melty chocolate sprinkled throughout. This is great for breakfast, dessert, or even just a snack! A warm slice with coffee or ice cream would go perfectly!

This recipe is super simple and delicious for the soul. Let’s get into it!

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Ingredients

Bananas – the riper your bananas, the better! Then simply mash them with a fork

Eggs – are a binding agent to hold the bread together and help it rise while baking

White Sugar -nothing beats the real deal with white granulated sugar

Coconut Sugar – you can use light brown sugar instead

Butter – butter helps keep banana bread fluffy and moist, unlike some low-fat substitutions

All-Purpose Flour – if you want the classic, nostalgic banana bread then this flour is the way to go! I haven’t experimented with GF flour so you will have to play around with that!

Chocolate Chips – You can sub this for pecans but I much rather the choc chips!

How to Make Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

If you haven’t made Chocolate Chip Banana Bread before, you’re in for a treat! Here’s how you can make yours.

1. Preheat the oven to 350F and grease a 9×5 loaf pan
2. Beat the sugar and softened butter until combined
3. Combine the eggs, mashed bananas, and vanilla in a mixing bowl.
4. Pour in your dry ingredients and mix well. Once the batter is smooth, fold in the chocolate chips.
5. Pour your batter into your greased loaf pan – top with more chocolate chips if desired.
6. Bake for 45-50 minutes or slightly until the toothpick comes out clean
7. Cut into slices and serve!

Make it Your Own!

There are a few things you can do with your banana bread! I personally think plain banana bread or ones with choc chips is great as is! BUT there are a few options for you! Here are some ideas:

• add walnuts or pecans for an extra crunch, or do half chocolate chip and half pecans
• Sub white chocolate chips or pb chocolate chips
• Add dried cranberries or raisins with walnuts
• Sub for vegan butter if you want it to be dairy-free
• To make muffins instead just divide the batter into your muffin tin and bake for 25-30 minutes
