Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour a standard 9"x5" loaf pan.
Cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Add in eggs one by one, beating until well incorporated.
Combine the dry ingredients in a small bowl, then slowly add them to the wet ingredients.
Mash up the bananas using a fork and add them to the batter. Add the vanilla extract and stir until well combined.
If using chocolate chips, coat them in flour in a small bowl to prevent them from sinking, then stir them into the mixture.
Transfer batter into the buttered and floured loaf pan. Place it in the oven and cook for about 75 minutes, until the top looks cracked and a toothpick inserted in the middle of the loaf comes out clean.
