Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with shortening or gluten-free cooking spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, cinnamon, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to combine.

Step 3

In a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer on medium speed, cream together the butter and brown sugar. Add the eggs and mix well, stopping to scrape down the bowl, as needed. Add the yogurt, bananas, and vanilla and mix well.

Step 4

Add half the flour mixture, reduce the mixer speed, and mix to combine. Add the remaining flour mixture and mix just until the batter is combined. Do not overmix. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Step 5

Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

Step 6

Let the bread cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes, then gently transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
