Moist Banana Bread That Will Make Your Mornings Delightful
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 2 cups flour
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup butter
- 2 pieces eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- Mash the 3 ripe bananas until smooth yet slightly chunky.
- Combine the melted butter and sugar with the mashed bananas until creamy.
- Add the 2 eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.
- Gently fold in the flour, baking soda, and salt; mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes; a toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- Use black-speckled and very soft bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture.
- All-purpose flour is preferred.
- Feel free to swap sugar with brown sugar or coconut sugar.
- Melted butter can be substituted with plant-based butter for a dairy-free option.
- For an egg-free version, replace eggs with ¼ cup applesauce or mashed banana.
- Ensure baking soda is fresh for optimal results.
