Here is a guide to making this chocolate swirl banana bread complete with images of prep. A printable recipe card is below.
The recipe yields 12 slices of banana bread. It takes 15 minutes of preparation time and 60 minutes to bake.
Ingredients You Will Need:
- 3 ripe bananas
- 2 eggs
- ⅓ cup butter milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter (one stick) – melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 ¾ cup all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Preparing the Banana Bread with Chocolate Swirl
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare a 9x5 loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray. You may also line it with parchment paper and spray the paper for easier removal.
In a large bowl, mash up the bananas with a fork or masher.
Add in the eggs, buttermilk, butter, vanilla extract and whisk until everything is combined.
Add in the brown sugar and mix until well combined. Mix together the flour, baking soda and salt in another bowl, then mix into the wet ingredients.
Scoop out one cup of the batter and set aside. Melt the chocolate chips. Using a microwave, heat for 30 seconds and stir, then heat again for 15-20 seconds until the chocolate is melted. Pour the melted chocolate into the reserved 1 cup of batter and mix the two together.
Pour ⅓ of the plain batter into the batter of the prepared loaf pan and spread it to the edges. Pour ½ of the chocolate batter on top of the plain batter and spread it to the edges. Repeat with the plain batter, the chocolate batter and then ending with the plain batter.
Use a butter knife and swirl through the pan to create a swirl design.
Bake for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes and then transfer the bread to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Slice and Enjoy!
