How to Make Banana Chocolate Loaf
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon baking soda and 2 teaspoons baking powder into 1 cup sour cream.
- Add the sour cream mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Mash 3 ripe bananas and stir them into the batter.
- Gradually add 2 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until just incorporated. Stir in 1 ½ cups chocolate chips.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the loaf browns too quickly, tent it loosely with foil.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
