Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
1 1/2 cups overly ripe bananas (mashed (about 3 medium/large bananas))

Steps

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x5 loaf pan with nonstick spray (that contains flour).
In a small bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl whisk the brown sugar, sugar, and melted butter until combined, about 1-2 minutes. Whisk in the mashed bananas, eggs, vanilla, and Greek yogurt.
Using a rubber spatula or large spoon, stir in the dry ingredients until just moistened. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Spoon the batter into the loaf pan. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips overtop, if you want.
Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If the bread is getting too dark for your liking you can cover the loaf with aluminum foil. I did this around the 50 minute mark.
Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for 15-20 minutes. Turn the bread out and let it continue to cool. Slice the bread once completely cool.

I've tried many banana bread recipes over the years and this one is hands down my favorite. The chocolate adds some sweetness without overpowering the flavor of the bananas. Love!
