Description

A deliciously moist chocolate banana bread made with ripe bananas and semi-sweet chocolate chips.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup mashed banana (equals about 34 medium bananas)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  5. Whisk together the dry ingredients – including chocolate chips.
  6. Stir in gently, until just combined.
  7. Pour/spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan, levelling the top.
  8. Bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes, until a cake tester or toothpick inserted comes out clean.
