Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas (mashed)
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour your cake pan to ensure the cake doesn’t stick and bakes evenly.
  2. Mash the Bananas: In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth but leaving a little texture for a moist, flavorful cake.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas, mixing thoroughly until everything is well combined and smooth.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry mix to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in Chocolate Chips and Pecans: Carefully fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans, ensuring even distribution without overmixing the batter.
  6. Bake and Cool: Pour the batter evenly into your prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before removing it from the pan.

Notes

  • Use overripe bananas for maximum sweetness and flavor.
  • Mix ingredients just until combined to keep the cake tender and avoid a dense texture.
  • Ensure butter and eggs are at room temperature for better mixing and rising.
  • Start checking your cake at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking and drying out.
  • Lightly toast pecans before adding for enhanced flavor and crunch.
