Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar granulated
- ⅓ cup butter softened
- 2 eggs
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- 3 bananas ripe, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
- ½ cup chocolate chips semisweet
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or grease it with butter.
- In a medium bowl add the flour, baking soda, salt and mix together; Set aside.
- In another large bowl, add sugar and butter and beat with a mixer at medium speed until well incorporated. Add eggs, and sour cream; beat until blended then stir in mashed bananas.
- Add flour mixture; beat at low speed just until moist.
- Place chocolate chips in a medium microwave-safe bowl, and microwave at high for 1 minute or until almost melted. A minute was enough for me, stir until the chocolate is smooth.
- Add 1 cup of the batter to the chocolate and stir so that it's well combined.
- Spoon the white batter first in the greased pan, then the chocolate batter, and swirl batters together with a knife. Or first spoon a layer of white batter, then a layer of chocolate batter, then white batter, then chocolate and if there's any white batter add it on top.
- Bake for about 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes or until an inserted toothpick in the middle of the bread comes out clean.
- Cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then remove from pan and continue cooling on a wire rack. Slice and serve.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Ugly brown bananas make the best banana bread. However, make sure you don’t use fermented bananas, or those where the peel is split.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the bread light and fluffy.
- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing.
