Scale

3 ripe bananas

mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)

1/2 cup unsalted butter

melted

3/4 cup brown sugar (light or dark)

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional

but recommended)

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Stir in the melted butter into the mashed bananas.
Mix in the brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Ensure your bananas are very ripe for the best flavor. Feel free to add nuts for additional texture.
