3-Ingredient Banana Bread
Description
The 3-Ingredient Banana Bread recipe combines mashed ripe bananas with coconut condensed milk before folding in sifted self-rising flour to maintain a light and airy batter. Baking in a loaf pan at 350°F produces a golden-topped bread with a tender crumb and the possibility of a slightly sticky interior, which is characteristic of moist banana bread.
The flavor highlights the sweetness and tropical notes from the coconut condensed milk and bananas, without needing added sugar or fats. The self-rising flour provides structure and gentle leavening, keeping it simple and straightforward.
Serve this banana bread sliced with toppings like almond butter, cinnamon, or fresh fruit to enhance its flavor. It can be cooled in the pan before slicing, aiding in easier handling. The recipe’s minimal ingredients make it convenient when pantry supplies are limited or for a quick baking project.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups banana about 3-4 medium bananas, mashed, ripe
- 3/4 cup coconut condensed milk for that tropical twist
- 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour sifted (keep it light and airy)
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (because patience isn't always our virtue). Grease a 7 x 4-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for an easy release.
- In a large mixing bowl, let's mash those bananas until they're smooth. Pour in the coconut condensed milk and give it a good whisk to combine.
- Now, gently fold in the sifted self-rising flour. Mix until just combined; we don't want to overwork it.
- Carefully pour the batter into your prepped pan. Slide it into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. You're looking for that perfect golden top and a skewer that comes out mostly clean; a little clingy crumb is totally okay.
- Let the banana bread cool in the pan before you take it out. The banana bread can be topped with almond butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or fresh fruit.
