Banana bread is a classic, delicious recipe that brings comfort and satisfaction with every bite. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert, this moist and flavorful bread combines ripe bananas with a mix of spices and nuts to create an irresistible treat. Follow our steps to bake a delightful banana bread that your family and friends will love.
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir them together until well incorporated.
Chop the walnuts if they are not already chopped. Add them to the dry ingredients and stir to distribute evenly.
In another large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth but still slightly chunky.
To the mashed bananas, add the eggs and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. Allow it to cool slightly before adding to the banana mixture. Stir to combine.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be thick and a bit lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice the banana bread and serve. Enjoy your homemade banana bread!
Tips:
- Ensure your bananas are fully ripe for optimal sweetness and flavor.
- Toast the walnuts beforehand for a richer, nuttier taste.
- Do not overmix the batter; it can result in a tougher texture.
- Use room temperature eggs and butter for a smoother batter.
- Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. It should come out clean.
