Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
  • Mash the bananas well: Make sure to mash the bananas until they are completely smooth, with no lumps.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your banana bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a loaf pan that is at least 9x5 inches: A smaller loaf pan will make your banana bread too thick and dense.
  • Bake the banana bread at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes: Check the bread for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the bread is done.
  • Let the banana bread cool completely before slicing and serving: This will help the bread to set and hold its shape.
