BANANA BREAD WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS AND WALNUTS



Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips and Walnuts image

Categories     Bread     Chocolate     Bake     Banana     Walnut

Yield Makes 1 (9-inch) loaf

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour a 9 by 5-inch metal loaf pan. Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl to blend. Combine the chocolate chips and walnuts in a small bowl; add 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture and toss to coat.
  • In a stand mixer, beat the butter in a large bowl until fluffy. Gradually add the sugar, beating until well blended. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time. Beat in the mashed bananas, lemon juice, and vanilla. Beat in flour mixture.
  • Spoon one-third of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with half of the chocolate-chip and nut mixture. Spoon another one-third of batter into the pan. Sprinkle with the remaining nut mixture. Cover with the remaining one-third batter. Run a knife through the batter in a zigzag pattern.
  • Bake the bread until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 5 minutes. Turn out onto a rack and cool.

Tips:

  • To achieve a moist and flavorful banana bread, use ripe bananas with brown spots. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the bread will be.
  • Creaming the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy is essential for a tender and evenly textured bread.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough and dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips or chopped walnuts. You can also add other mix-ins, such as dried cranberries, raisins, or chopped nuts.
  • Bake the banana bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the bread.

Conclusion:

This delectable banana bread recipe yields a moist, tender, and flavorful loaf that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet snack.
