Description

A delicious and moist banana bread made with ripe bananas.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium-sized bananas, extra ripe (mashed, about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup canola oil
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour (sifted)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a 9×5 loaf pan with nonstick spray and parchment paper.
  2. Mash the bananas in a large bowl using a fork until smooth with a few lumps.
  3. Mix in the sugar until well combined and glossy.
  4. Stir in the eggs, vanilla extract, and canola oil until smooth.
  5. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt in another bowl.
  6. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top if needed.
  8. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan before removing.
