1/4 Cup | 50g Soft Brown Sugar
1/4 Cup | 50g White Sugar
1/2 Cup | 115g unsalted Butter, melted
2 Large Eggs, room temperature (55-64g recommended)
1 1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Essence

1 1/2 Cup | 187g All Purpose Flour
1 Teaspoon | 6g Baking Soda
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Cinnamon powder (optional)
3/4 Cup | 142gm mini chocolate chips ( reserve 1/4 of it for topping)


RECIPE:

🎂 If you have unripe bananas bake them around 10min and then Mash in a bowl. Add the Brown and White Sugars. Melt Butter, allow to cool and add it. Add the Eggs and Vanilla Essence. Mix well.

🎂 Add the Greek Yogurt and mix.
If you don't have Yogurt, you can use 1/4 Cup Milk and 1/2 Tablespoon White Vinegar instead. Do not skip the Vinegar as Baking Soda relies upon an acid to work with. Lemon juice can be used instead of Vinegar.
Greek Yogurt works well in this recipe but Plain Yogurt also can be used. Ensure it's not sour and not very liquidy. Hung Curd also is a great alternative.

🎂 Place a Sieve(Strainer) on top and sift together the All Purpose Flour, Baking Soda, Salt and Cinnamon powder in two batches. Fold the dry ingredients Gently into the wet ingredients.

🎂 Fold in the Chocolate chips. Reserve some for topping.

🎂 Bake @350F in a Preheated Oven for 45-50mins in a 9 inch loaf pan. Grease and Line the pan with parchment paper with long edges. Baking time will vary based on the pan size or shape used. Allow to cool in the pan for 15-20 mins.

For Eggless,
You can use 1/4 Cup Milk instead of the eggs and replace the baking soda with 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda.
