Steps:
- Prep Time - 10 minutes
- Baking Time - 1:40 hours
- Bread Machine Settings - Sweet Quick Bread, Light Color, 2 lb
- Beat the eggs.
- Mash bananas with a fork.
- Soften the butter in microwave.
- Add the eggs, butter & bananas into the bread pan and then add the other ingredients. Try to follow order of the ingredients listed above so that liquid ingredients are placed in the bread pan first and the dry ingredients second. Be aware that the bread pan should be removed from the bread machine before you start to add any ingredients. This helps to avoid spilling any material inside the bread machine. The bread machine should always be unplugged when removing the bread pan.
- Put the bread pan (with all of the ingredients) back into the bread machine, close the bread machine lid and then plug in the bread machine.
- Enter the bread machine settings (Sweet Quick Bread, Light Color) and press the start button. FYI - Before making this recipe, please read the tips section below for more information regarding the sweet quick bread setting used to make banana breads. The setting may be called "quick bread", "quick bread/cake", "cake", etc. However, some manufacturers use the "quick bread" setting are for rapid sandwich-type breads that use yeast (and not for quick breads such as banana bread that use baking powder/soda). Therefore, this setting can be very confusing... but the tips section below will help you to find the right setting to use on your machine. You need to enter the correct banana bread setting used by your SPECIFIC bread machine model or the banana bread could be under or overcooked.
- Optional - If you want to add chopped walnuts or mini chocolate chips to enhance this basic banana bread recipe, please add them after the first bread machine mixing cycle and before the second mixing (final mixing).
- When the bread machine has finished baking the bread, unplug the bread machine, remove the bread pan and place it on a wooden cutting board. Use oven mitts when removing the bread pan because it will be very hot!
- Optional - Use a long wooden skewer to test if the banana bread is completely cooked. Wear oven mitts as the bread pan will be hot. See the tips section for more details on this classic "toothpick" test.
- After removing the bread pan from the bread machine, you should let the banana bread stay within the warm bread pan on a wooden cutting board for 10 minutes (as this finishes the baking process) before you remove the banana bread from the bread pan. Wear oven mitts.
- After 10 the minute "cooldown", you should remove the banana bread from the bread pan and place the banana bread on a wire cooling rack to finish cooling. Use oven mitts when removing the bread.
- Don't forget to remove the mixing paddle if it is stuck in the bread. Use oven mitts as the mixing paddle could be hot.
- You should allow the banana bread to completely cool before cutting. This can take up to 2 hours. Otherwise, the banana bread will break (crumble) more easily when cut.

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 make your banana bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for a few minutes before baking allows the flavors to meld and the gluten to relax, resulting in a more tender loaf.
- Bake the banana bread at the right temperature: The ideal oven temperature for baking banana bread is 350°F (175°C). A lower temperature will result in a denser loaf, while a higher temperature will make the loaf too dry.
- Don't overbake the banana bread: Overbaking can make your banana bread dry and crumbly. Check the loaf for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the loaf is done.
- Let the banana bread cool completely: Letting the banana bread cool completely before slicing and serving allows the flavors to develop and the loaf to set.
Conclusion:
Banana bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect loaf of banana bread every time. Whether you're using a bread machine or a traditional oven, be sure to use ripe bananas, don't overmix the batter, let the batter rest, bake the banana bread at the right temperature, and don't overbake it. With a little practice, you'll be a banana bread baking pro in no time!
