Description

A delightful treat combining the flavors of ripe bananas, fresh raspberries, and dark chocolate in a moist banana bread.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed)
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the baking soda, salt, and flour. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in the raspberries and dark chocolate chips, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, try adding a teaspoon of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
  • You can substitute the raspberries with blueberries or chopped strawberries for a different fruit twist.
