A quick and easy one-bowl pumpkin banana bread recipe with chocolate chips, perfect for cozy fall treats. Moist, tender, and packed with warm spices and melty chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup (240 ml) pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed (110 grams) brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 cups (250 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup (130 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until mostly smooth with a few small lumps.
  3. Add the pumpkin puree to the mashed bananas and stir until combined.
  4. Mix in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until just blended.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently until no flour streaks remain. Do not overmix.
  7. Fold in the chocolate chips carefully to distribute evenly.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top lightly.
  9. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Tent with foil if the top browns too quickly.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use ripe bananas for best sweetness and moisture. Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough bread. If bananas are not ripe, microwave for 30 seconds to soften. Letting the batter rest for 5 minutes before baking helps spices bloom. For dairy-free, use flax eggs and dairy-free chocolate chips. Tent with foil if top browns too fast.
