Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5 metal loaf pan.
In a small bowl, mash the overripe bananas until smooth and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a hand mixer until fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
Add in room temperature eggs, mashed bananas, and vanilla extract; mix until fully combined.
Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into the wet mixture and gently fold until just combined. Fold in 3/4 cup of chocolate chips.
Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top. Bake for 50–60 minutes or until set; a knife inserted should come out clean. Allow cooling for at least 20 minutes before serving.
