Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces ripe banana
- 1 piece egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Add the egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Lightly flour your hands and take small amounts of the dough to shape into stick-like fingers, about 4 inches long and 1 inch wide. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each stick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the sticks are firm to the touch and lightly golden on the edges.
Let the banana bread sticks cool completely before serving. These can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
