Ingredients

  • 3 bananas (very, very ripe, even overripe)
  • 1/2 cup butter (unsalted)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup sugar (increase to 3/4 cup if you like your banana bread sweeter)
  • 1 Tbsp lime juice (or lemon juice)
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt (or kosher salt)

Instructions

  1. Soften butter by letting it sit at room temperature for a few hours, or microwave for 20-30 seconds, until soft but not melted. Add the sugar and cream the two together with a hand whisk, about 30 seconds.
  2. Add the eggs, bananas and lime juice. Whisk for a little more, until all the ingredients are combined. The bananas should be soft enough to be easily broken up with a whisk.
  3. Mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Add to the creamed banana mixture and combine using the whisk. 
  4. Grease a bread pan with some butter. Pour in the banana bread mixture, scraping every last bit of it from the bowl. A rubber spatula is best for this task.
  5. Transfer the pan into an oven preheated to 350F and bake for 50 minutes or until a wooden stick come out barely clean. Do not over-bake as that will result in reduced moistness. Tip: I often start preheating the oven at the same time as I start preparing the batter, which only takes minutes. I place the pan in the not fully preheated oven and set the time to 55 minutes, which gives me perfect results.As they say, everyone's oven bakes differently, so your timing may slightly vary.
