Whole Wheat Banana Bread

This whole wheat banana bread recipe is so tender, moist, flavorful, light and fluffy that you will never look for another banana bread recipe again. I keep this basic recipe very simple and once a while will jazz up the spices, or throw in chocolate chips, nuts and raisins.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 banana large and very ripe bananas ( or 3 smaller ones
  • 2/3 cups light brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour or all purpose flour plus 2 Tablespoons
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • pinch salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Notes

  • Use only ripe and super ripe bananas, even if they look too ripe. They're actually just perfect.
  • Since it's a whole wheat banana bread, the batter needs to wait a couple of minutes before baking.
  • Also because it's made with whole wheat flour, if you need to swap this to all purpose flour make sure you add an extra 2 Tablespoons of all purpose flour.
  • This banana bread recipe is seriously moist and keeps on the counter for up to 4 days tasting just as fresh.
  • It can also be frozen and defrosts beautifully!
