Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Overripe bananas
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, peel and mash the overripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Add the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and egg to the mashed bananas. Mix well until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring only until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve your super cheap banana bread on its own or with your favorite spread. Enjoy!
