Ingredients:
* 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
* 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 tsp baking soda
* 1 tsp salt
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
* 2 large eggs
* 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts (if using).
7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
8. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cook Time: 55-60 minutes
Prep Time: 15 minutes

Tips and Variations:
* For a different twist, try substituting the semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark or milk chocolate chips.
* Add some crunch with chopped pecans or hazelnuts instead of walnuts.
* Swap the granulated sugar with brown sugar for a deeper flavor.
* For a boost of flavor, add a teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom to the batter.
* Make it a little healthier by using whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour.
