Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense loaf of bread.
  • Use a loaf pan that is properly greased and floured: This will help prevent the bread from sticking to the pan.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help the bread hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.
