Ingredients

3 ripe bananas, mashed

1/2 cup tahini

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or pecans)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas and tahini, mixing until smooth and creamy.

Stir in the brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Add the baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the mixture, stirring just until combined.

Gradually fold in the flour until no dry streaks remain but be careful not to over-mix.

Gently stir in the dark chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using).

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, remove from the oven and let the banana bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
