Steps
Preheat oven to 425°F (220 °C) (220°C (425 °F)). Grease and line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, add bananas and mash until smooth, leaving a few chunks for texture.
Add the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs to the mashed bananas. Mix until the mixture is smooth.
Add the sour cream and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the 3/4 cup of chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. If desired, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top.
Bake at 425°F (220 °C) (220°C (425 °F)) for 10 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180 °C) (175°C (350 °F)) and continue baking for 50-60 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
Lightly tent the pan with foil partway through the baking time to prevent the top from over-browning.
Cool the bread in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Based on community comments, Greek yogurt or curd can be used as a substitute for sour cream. The initial high temperature helps the bread rise quickly, creating a better dome.
