Ingredients
1/4 cup non-fat plain Greek-style yogurt1 large egg, beaten1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled1/4 cup oil1 tbsp vanilla 1/2 cup brown sugar1 cup flour, plus more for dusting the pan1 cup whole wheat flour1/2 tsp cinnamon1/4 tsp nutmeg3/4 tsp baking soda1/2 tsp salt5 over-ripe bananas, mashed well2/3 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped coarse2/3 cup miniature chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom and sides of a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan; dust with flour, tapping out the excess.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
In a medium bowl, mix the mashed bananas, yogurt, eggs, butter, and vanilla with a wooden spoon. Lightly fold the banana mixture into the dry ingredients with a rubber spatula until just combined and the batter looks thick and chunky.
Fold in walnuts as carefully as possible. Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Bake until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with very few crumbs, about 1 hour.
Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature. (The bread can be wrapped with plastic wrap and stored at room temperature for up to 3 days).
