Does this look like appetizing to you?😁 Well, oh well, as not a lot of you know, when I was younger, one of my frustrations was baking. Now that I have more time, I was able to bake twice this week! And this would be my first recipe I will be sharing here on my blog - my Banana Bread Recipe.
Simple & Easy Banana Bread
Prep time: 10- 15 minutes
Bake Time: 50 - 55 minutes
Recipe makes: 1 loaf
Skill Level: Easy
INGREDIENTS:
- 3 Medium Bananas (overripe bananas are perfect!)
- 3/4 cup sugar (I used the SPLENDA® Naturals Sugar & Stevia Sweetener Blend I received free from Crowdtap for sampling purposes😉) Tip: You can also substitute sugar with honey👍
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 Egg
- 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 tablespoon of Cinnamon or Vanilla extract (I prefer the Vanilla flavor but Cinnamon is a good choice too!)
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350℉
- Mash the bananas in a large bowl. (As mentioned overripe bananas are great since they are soft and easy to mash).
- Add the egg, sugar and cooking oil to the mashed bananas.
- Add the remaining ingredients - flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon or vanilla extract to the banana mixture.
- Grease the bottom and the sides of a loaf pan with a cooking spray.
- Baked for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Allow pan to cool down for 10 minutes.
- Removed your bread from the pan. (You'll find it easier to remove the bread when you run a butter or bread knife around the edges of the bread). Turn the pan over onto your wire rack (or a plate, like what I did, since I do not currently have a wire rack😂) then your banana loaf of bread should come out clean and easy.
- Allow the bread to fully cool before serving.
