- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, eggs, Greek yogurt, olive oil, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Stir in the chopped nuts and chocolate chips.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
