Ingredients
  

  • 3 Bananas (ripe & large sized) – 345 grams – Use 1 1/2 cups of mashed bananas to be exact.
  • 1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil – 115 milliliters – Use a neutral tasting vegetable oil such as corn oil or mild/light olive oil.
  • 2 Eggs (large) – 114 grams – Large eggs (not extra large or jumbo eggs).
  • 1 Cup White Granulated Sugar – 200 grams
  • 2 Cups All Purpose Flour – 240 grams
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract – 5 milliliters
  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda – 5 grams
  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder – 4 grams
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Salt – 3 grams

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. Mash the bananas thoroughly using a fork.
  3. Beat the eggs lightly.
  4. Combine the mashed bananas, vegetable oil, eggs, and sugar in a large mixing bowl and stir until completely incorporated.
  5. Stir in the remaining ingredients with a large spoon until the batter is fully mixed, avoiding an electric mixer to prevent a gummy or rubbery texture.
  6. Optionally, fold in one cup of your preferred mix-ins, such as chocolate chips or chopped walnuts, after the batter is mixed.
  7. Pour the batter into a nonstick bread pan and smooth the surface.
  8. Bake the bread at 325°F (163°C) for 65 to 70 minutes.
  9. Remove the pan from the oven using mitts and allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes to finish the baking process.
  10. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely for 1 to 2 hours, using a silicone spatula to loosen the edges if the bread sticks to the pan.
  11. Refer to the tips section on BreadDad.com for additional guidance on ensuring recipe success and avoiding common problems.
