Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups (190 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 cup (150 grams) sugar (granulated or brown)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/2 cup (60 grams) chopped walnuts or chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the bananas thoroughly in a large mixing bowl until mostly smooth with a few small lumps.
  3. Add the vegetable oil, yogurt, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and stir until just combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and sugar.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet banana mixture using a spatula, mixing gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in optional walnuts or chocolate chips if using.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking at 50 minutes with a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Cool the banana bread in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for best moisture and sweetness. Do not overmix the batter to keep the bread tender. Start checking doneness at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking. Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling. For dairy-free, substitute yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and use plant-based milk instead of oil. Optional add-ins like walnuts or chocolate chips add texture and flavor.
