Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Banana, Banana bread
Servings: 12 muffins

Ingredients

  • 1 cup bananas (about 2 large) mashed
  • ½ cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 2 eggs
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1¼ cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin or spray generously with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas, oil, and eggs. This can be done by hand with a wooden spoon or spatula.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt.

This banana bread will remain fresh in an airtight container for 3-4 days on the counter and for up to 7 days in the refrigerator. It will also freeze well for up to 3 months.
