Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Moist Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), and prepare a 9x5 inch loaf pan by greasing or lining it.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until combined.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy, then add melted butter and vegetable oil, mixing well.
  4. Stir in the mashed bananas with the wet ingredients until well combined, leaving some small chunks.
  5. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gently until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, testing for doneness with a skewer; it should come out with moist crumbs.
  9. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
