Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a (8.5 x 4.5 x 2.5) glass loaf pan and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat 2 eggs with an electric hand mixer until well-blended.

  7. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake for 55-60 minutes. Cool before cutting. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Recipe copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only. 
  • Make sure your bananas are so ripe, they’re almost black. The more ripe the bananas, the more flavor they hold. 
  • I use large eggs.
  • I use vegetable oil. You can sub olive oil if you want a crispier crust.
  • Use a serrated knife to cut the banana bread into slices. 
  • If you don’t have an electric hand mixer, you can mix this recipe by hand or use a stand mixer. 
  • Feel free to add chopped up bananas into the batter if you’d like. 
  • If the top of your banana bread begins to brown or burn before the center is cooked, tent some aluminum foil over the top of the pan as you bake. 
  • You know your banana bread is done when a toothpick stuck into the center comes out clean.
