Ingredients
- 1 cup banana puree about 2 ripe bananas
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Lightly grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup banana puree, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup melted butter, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 60-90 seconds.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined.
- Stir in 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour until just combined. If using nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in gently at this stage.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Fold in 1 cup of chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans) or chocolate chips after mixing the flour.
- Ensure that your bananas are fully ripe for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
