  • 1-1/3 cups mashed fully ripe bananas (about 3)
Dry Ingredients
  • 1-1/2 cups flour
  • 1 cup sugar

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, use a fork to mash the ripe bananas.

Baking

  2. Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for about 60 minutes. The banana bread is ready when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  2. Then, take it out of the pan, slice it, and enjoy!

Notes

Store your banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, wrap in plastic wrap and freeze. Thaw at room temperature before enjoying. Use ripe bananas for a sweeter bread and avoid overmixing for softness. Consider adding cinnamon or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
