Description

This Banana Bread recipe is moist, soft, and has a perfect amount of banana flavor. It’s a great go-to when you have some extra overripe bananas lying around! I love having this with breakfast or a sweet snack.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large overripe bananas, mashed

Instructions

  1. Grease a 9″x5″ loaf pan and line with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the softened butter and sugars together for a couple minutes until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time, beating on low until incorporated after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mashed bananas and mix until combined.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and fold in with a spatula by hand until the mixture is combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for around 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Once baked, let the pan sit on a wire rack to cool. Once the loaf has cooled but is still a little warm, remove from the pan and let sit on the wire rack until completely cooled.
