Ingredients
Bread
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 very ripe, darkly speckled bananas, mashed well
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips (optional)
How it's made!
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch (23x13 cm) loaf pan with cooking spray or butter.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Add the mashed bananas, Greek yogurt, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined and the batter is smooth.
- Fold in the chopped walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips, if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice and serve the banana bread, either warm or at room temperature.
- Enjoy!
