I never get tired of trying different banana bread recipes and I really like the way this one turned out. It baked up extra moist with a rich and tender crumb. It’s made with butter, greek yogurt, plenty of mashed bananas and it’s filled and topped with chocolate chips. 

This double chocolate banana bread is a good thing!

• quick breakfast loaf
• easy to make
• made with basic ingredients
• extra moist banana bread that stays moist for a few days

For this quick bread I suggest that you only use ripe bananas and room temperature ingredients. 

What you need for this recipe:

• all-purpose flour
• baking soda 
• unsalted butter 
• plain greek yogurt
• cocoa powder
• granulated and brown sugar
• bananas
• egg 
• vanilla extract
• kosher salt
• semi-sweet chocolate chips

Note: don’t over-mix the batter.
