1. Preheat oven to 175°C. Line a 23 cm x 13 cm loaf tin with parchment paper and lightly grease.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
3. In another bowl, whisk mashed bananas, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
4. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients just until combined; fold in chocolate chips and walnuts, being careful not to overmix.
5. Pour batter into prepared tin and bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in tin for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
