Classic chocolate chip banana bread

Ingredients

• 3 very ripe bananas
• 113 g unsalted butter, melted
• 100 g sugar
• 100 g brown sugar
• 100 g semisweet chocolate, chopped
• 180 g all-purpose flour
• 2 eggs
• Vanilla
• 5 g baking soda
• 5 g baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• Chocolate chips, to decorate

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a loaf pan.
2. Mash the bananas and mix with the melted butter and both sugars.
3. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
4. Fold in the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt gently, then the chopped chocolate.
5. Pour into the pan, crown with chocolate chips, and bake 50–60 minutes, until a skewer comes out with moist crumbs.
6. Cool in the pan 15 minutes before slicing — banana bread rewards patience.
