(Ingredients for banana bread)
  • 2-3 ripe bananas (about 1 cup mashed)
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

2. Instructions To Make Banana Bread

Step1 - Preheat your oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 4x8-inch loaf pan.

Step2 - Mash the bananas: In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.

Step3 - Mix wet ingredients: Stir the melted butter into the mashed bananas.

Step4 - Add sugar, egg, and vanilla: Add the granulated sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture and mix well.

Step5 - Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt

Step6 - Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Step7 - Add optional ingredients: If you like, fold in chopped nuts and chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture.

Step8 - Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step9 - Cool and enjoy: Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step10 - Slice and serve: Once it's completely cool, slice your homemade banana bread and enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea!
