Preparation
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325F and grease and line a 9×5 loaf pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, mix together the melted butter and sugars until you reach a paste-like consistency. This may take some vigorous whisking for a minute or two. You can either use a whisk or an electric mixer with the paddle attachment.
Step 4
Add in your mashed bananas followed by the eggs, yogurt, and vanilla.
Step 5
Once all of your wet ingredients are mixed together, fold in the dry ingredients. Then, fold in the chocolate chips.
Step 6
Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and spread it even. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top if you like.
Step 7
Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let it cool completely before removing from the pan. Store at room temperature in an air-tight container.
