Tips and Tricks

Ripe Bananas

Here are some tips to make the perfect chocolate chip banana bread without baking soda or powder:

  • Use very ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense bread. Mix until the ingredients are just combined.
  • Feel free to add other mix-ins such as chopped nuts, dried fruit, or shredded coconut.
  • If you don't have a loaf pan, you can make muffins instead. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
