How do i make banana bread from scratch?

If you're looking for an easy and delicious way to make banana bread from scratch, you've come to the right place. Banana bread is a classic comfort food, perfect for snacks, breakfast, or even as a dessert with a scoop of ice cream. Making banana bread from scratch is simple and requires ingredients that you likely already have in your pantry—all you need is some ripe bananas, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and butter (or oil).

First thing's first - preheat your oven to 350°F and generously grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter.

Second, mash three ripe bananas in a medium bowl until it creates a thick and creamy consistency. Be sure to mash it extremely well so that it will incorporate evenly into the dough as it bakes. Add in 3/4 cup melted butter (or 1/2 cup vegetable oil) and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and stir together until combined.

In a separate bowl combine 2 cups all-purpose flour + 1 teaspoon baking powder + 1/2 teaspoon baking soda + 1/2 teaspoon salt - stir until fully combined. Set aside your dry ingredients while you mix the wet ingredients together.

To the wet ingredients, add 2/3 cup brown sugar (or white granulated sugar) and stir until combined before adding the dry ingredients half at a time while stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or spatula until everything is completely mixed together. Stir in any extras that might take your banana bread recipe up to another level such as chopped nuts or chocolate chips!

Once everything is mixed together pour the batter into your greased loaf pan (be careful not to overfill!) and bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center. Allow for your banana bread to cool before slicing into it!
