The Most Moist Chocolate Chip Banana Bread You Will Ever Taste

There are so many different takes on banana bread. Some opt for walnuts, but I prefer chocolate chips. A common version includes sliced bananas, but I think it's best when they are completely mashed and incorporated in the bread.

Several recipes call for melted butter, but creaming the butter and sugar together gives it a much fluffier and rich texture. As I'm sure you're wondering, what makes this banana bread exceptionally moist is sour cream.

Bet you haven't seen that one before, huh? It does a phenomenal job making the bread rich and keeping it moist, and no one will even know that it's in there.
