Ingredients
- 115g unsalted butter, melted
- 100g granulated sugar
- 100g light brown sugar
- 2 medium eggs, room temperature
- 125ml whole or semi-skimmed milk, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 180g plain flour
- 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon (optional but recommended)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3 ripe large bananas, mashed
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan) and grease a loaf tin, lining it with parchment paper if desired.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until well combined.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until the mixture is homogenous.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Gradically mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Fold in the mashed bananas, making sure not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin and smooth the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake, as the banana bread will continue to cook slightly as it cools in the tin.
- Let the banana bread cool in the tin for a while before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
