Ingredients

  • 120 g salted butter (Brown for the batter; reserve 2–3 thin cold strips for the topping. The source gives ½ cup + 1 tbsp for the 120 g amount.)
  • 3.5 very ripe bananas (Use 3–4; mashed. Source also gives about 1½ cups.)
  • 150 g brown sugar (Packed.)
  • 120 g Greek yogurt or sour cream (Room temperature; choose Greek yogurt or sour cream.)
  • 2 eggs (Room temperature.)
  • 250 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 0.75 tsp baking powder
  • 150 g chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (Choose chocolate chips or chopped chocolate; source says about 1 cup.)
  • cold salted butter (2–3 thin strips, for topping; taken from the listed butter.)

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Melt the salted butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring continuously until golden brown and nutty, about 5–8 minutes.

  3. 3

    Remove the browned butter from the heat and let it cool for 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder.

  5. 5

    Add the mashed bananas, brown sugar, Greek yogurt or sour cream, and eggs to the slightly cooled brown butter. Whisk until well combined.

  6. 6

    Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.

  7. 7

    Fold in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate.

  8. 8

    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Run a knife down the center to make a shallow crease, then place 2–3 thin strips of cold butter in the crease.

  9. 9

    Bake for 60–65 minutes, beginning to check around 30–35 minutes. If the top gets too dark, loosely cover the loaf with foil for the remaining baking time.

  10. 10

    Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; the bread is ready when it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

  11. 11

    Let the banana bread cool before slicing. Serve and enjoy.

Notes

The source gives two alternatives for the dairy ingredient and for the chocolate. It does not specify the loaf-pan size or a distinct cooling duration beyond cooling before slicing.
