I love bananas but I don’t love how quickly they turn brown. I often buy too many bananas and they end up turning brown but fortunately, I can freeze the over-ripe bananas and make this super easy banana bread! This is my go-to recipe that yields perfect banana bread every time. I make this banana bread for my family on a regular basis.
This recipe makes just enough to fill one 9-by-5-Inch Loaf Pan
Start by pre-heating the oven to 350 degrees F.
Next, prepare your loaf pan. Even if it’s non-stick, I highly recommend using either Pam Spray For Baking
You’ll need two big bowls – one for the wet ingredients and one for the dry ingredients. The bowl for the wet ingredients should be large enough to hold all of the batter as you’ll be transferring all of the dry ingredients into that bowl.
Dry Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch of salt
Wet Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar
1 cup banana (smashed)
Mix the ingredients in both bowls separately using a wooden spoon or spatula. Slowly pour the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Combine but don’t over-stir. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 1 hour.
Perfect every time!
