How to Make Chocolate Banana Loaf
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter. Add 1 cup packed light brown sugar and mash in 3 ripe bananas until well combined. Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips until just melted and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in ½ cup milk (or milk alternative).
- Fold in ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
