Quick Banana Bread

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick Banana Bread.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C) and give a 9x5-inch loaf pan a light greasing to ensure your banana bread slides out easily later.

2. Step 2

   In a mixing bowl, mash up some ripe bananas until smooth, then stir in sugar, a beaten egg, and melted butter until everything is beautifully blended together.

3. Step 3

   In another bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda, then gently fold this dry mix into your banana mixture, being careful not to overmix—just combine until you see no dry flour.

4. Step 4

   Sprinkle in a pinch of salt and give it a gentle stir.

5. Step 5

   Now, pour your luscious batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

6. Step 6

   Pop it into the preheated oven and let it bake for about an hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, signaling that your banana bread is ready.

7. Step 7

   Once it’s done, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into it.

   Enjoy the delightful aroma and the warm, comforting taste of your homemade banana bread—perfect for sharing or savoring all on your own!.
