The key to good banana breads is not overmixing the batter. Once the liquid ingredients are added to the dry, mix the batter by hand just until the flour is moistened, for no more than about ten seconds. Too much mixing can cause the final product to be dry, tough or misshapen.

Try this tasty recipe for chocolate chip banana bread. You might ask yourself afterward, shouldn't all banana breads have chocolate chips?
