Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Stir in the melted butter, then mix in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract.
Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture and stir to combine.
Add the flour and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Fold in the chocolate chips gently using a spatula.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
