Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup melted butter (1 stick), cooled slightly
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F and line a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving excess on the two longer sides so you can easily remove the banana bread once baked. Spray with nonstick spray and set aside.
- Mash the bananas in a large bowl, then add brown sugar and melted butter and continue to mash with the bananas until almost completely smooth.
- Add Greek yogurt, eggs and vanilla and whisk until smooth. Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt, and fold with a rubber spatula until no streaks of flour remain.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
- Let cool for at least 20 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
