Irresistible Starbucks Banana Bread Recipe with Chocolate Chips and Crunchy Walnuts
The classic American banana bread recipe has changed over the years. Now, chocolate chips are stirred in. This modern update adds a double delight by mixing together two popular tastes into one appealing snack.
Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Loaf pan
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Cooling rack
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 1 1/8 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp buttermilk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 ripe bananas mashed
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Heat Your Oven: Set your oven to 325°F (163°C) and ready your loaf pan with some grease.
- Prepare Dry Stuff: Grab a big bowl. Toss in flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir it up.
- Ready the Wet Stuff: Find another bowl. Whip together egg, sugar, oil into a smooth mix. Throw in buttermilk, a dash of vanilla.
- Merge with Bananas: Let the mashed bananas join the wet stuff, then carefully fold in the dry stuff you mixed earlier.
- Time for Walnuts & Chocolate Chips: Carefully mix in walnuts and chocolate chips.
- It's Baking Time: Empty your mix into the greased loaf pan. Let it bake. It needs 60-70 minutes. Or stick a toothpick in – it's done when the toothpick comes out clean.
- Time to Cool: Let your lovely loaf chill in the pan for 10 minutes. Then pop it onto a cooling rack.
Notes
- Toss chocolate chips in a little flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
- Use dark chocolate for a richer taste.
