Time 1h15m

Yield 1 loaf, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup white sugar
4 tablespoons softened butter
2 eggs
3 overripe bananas, mashed
1/3 cup plain yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (12 ounce) package dark semisweet chocolate chunks
1 cup raspberries
1 tablespoon flour

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
  • 3. Cut raspberries in half, then toss them with 1 tbsp flour.
  • 4. In a separate large bowl, beat the sugar and butter with an electric mixer at medium speed until well blended (about 1 minute). Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the banana, yogurt, and vanilla; beat until blended. Stir in the flour mixture; just until moist. Don't over-mix. Stir in the chocolate chunks and then gently stir in the raspberries.
  • 4. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 60 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 15 minutes in the pan on a wire rack. Remove from pan and cool completely on the wire rack.
  • tip: I found that 60 minutes still left the middle too gooey, you may want to bake as long as 70-75 minutes. If the top is browning too much during this process, cover with foil as it is baking.
