Preparation Steps

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by greasing it lightly.
Mash the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy.
Combine the mashed bananas with the vegetable oil, milk, light brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir gently until all ingredients are incorporated.
Incorporate the all-purpose flour gradually until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips gently for even distribution.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing and cutting into bars.
