Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, maple syrup, Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until well blended, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the mashed bananas until well blended. Fold the flour mixture with a rubber spatula until no streaks of flour remain. Then fold in the walnuts and chocolate chips.
  4. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with more nuts and chocolate chips. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  5. Let cool for at least 20 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. You can freeze the bread for up to 3 months. Just thaw overnight in the fridge and bring to room temperature before serving.
  • Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
  • Make them into muffins: The recipe works well for muffins instead of a banana bread. Just reduce the time to 20-22 minutes.
  • Instead of avocado oil, you can use olive oil or coconut oil.
  • Instead of greek yogurt, you can use sour cream or a neutral oil using a 1:1 substitution. You can also use milk.
  • Instead of maple syrup, you can use another liquid sweetener like agave syrup or honey.
  • Instead of eggs, you can use flax eggs. 
  • To make this gluten-free, use an all-purpose gluten-free flour mix. Do not substitute only almond flour or only coconut flour.
