Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven and prepare the loaf pan.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine melted butter, vegetable oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk to combine. Mix in the mashed bananas.
Mixing
  1. Add the dry ingredients and chocolate chips to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Make sure not to overmix!
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Bake in the center of your preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  2. If the top of the loaf is browning too fast, loosely tent it with aluminum foil and continue baking until cooked through.
Cooling and Serving
  1. Cool the bread in your loaf pan until slightly warm or room temperature before slicing and serving.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and moisture. Don’t overmix the batter; this can make the bread tough. Experiment with different types of chocolate chips, like dark chocolate or even white chocolate for varied flavors. If you want extra texture, you can add nuts like walnuts or pecans.
