How to know when chocolate chip banana bread is done?

Check if it’s golden on top and springs back when pressed lightly. A toothpick should come out clean or with a few crumbs.

What is the number one mistake made when making banana bread?

Overmixing the batter, which makes the bread dense instead of light.

How to prevent chocolate chips sinking in banana bread?

Toss them in a little flour before adding to the batter.

Does chocolate chip banana bread need to be refrigerated?
