Banana Bread with Mayonnaise Recipe
Description
This Banana Bread with Mayonnaise Recipe uses common pantry ingredients including mashed bananas, mayonnaise, an egg, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and basic baking staples such as flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. The mayonnaise replaces some of the fat typically used, contributing moisture and softness to the bread while maintaining a balanced texture.
The ingredients are mixed in two stages: first combining the wet ingredients with dry ones until just combined, then incorporating the mashed bananas gently to avoid overmixing. Baking at 350°F for about 60 minutes allows the loaf to cook through evenly, producing a golden-brown crust and a tender, slightly sweet interior with a mild cinnamon flavor.
This banana bread suits casual meals or snacks and pairs well with coffee or tea. Cooling it before slicing helps maintain its structure for neat pieces. The recipe’s use of mayonnaise offers a unique approach to achieving moistness without traditional butter or oil.
