Banana Bread Recipe

The very best Banana Bread is so easy to make! This is my absolute favorite recipe for using up overripe bananas, it's soft, moist, and bursting with banana, brown sugar, and cinnamon flavors. Slathered with melted butter it's perfect alongside a hot cup of coffee for breakfast.

Homemade bananabread is such an easy treat, I hope you all get a chance to make this. Let me know in the comments what you like to add to yours!

My mom grew up poor and didn’t always have food. So she rarely wasted food. She always made banana bread when they bananas were too ripe. She’s an amazing cook and baker. I should have her write down her recipes. I love your channel, new subscriber. ❤️

For all my lazy chefs out there, I did this recipe in one bowl with one fork and one spatula. Mixed all the dry ingredients together first and then added the room temp butter and eggs, followed by the cooled down baked bananas and it turned out excellent! Also threw in a half cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and it was phenomenal.

I made this banana bread recipe this morning. I followed your directions to the letter and this is without a doubt the best banana bread I've ever made. It's so delicious and moist. Thank you for this recipe!

Ok, but I JUST made a banana bread this afternoon, and now you come out with the perfect banana bread recipe ? You truly are a mind reader.

I tried using this recipe for my first banana cake and everything went well! My wife loves it so much!

Love the generosity of John! No unnecessary information.

I've made this 3 times already in my convection oven. a foolproof recipe. Honestly, you cannot go wrong with this. I creamed butter and sugar with a hand mixer for 2 mins then added the eggs while mixing with 30sec intervals. And just yesterday I mixed a chopped-up chocolate bar for extra flavor and it came out perfectly. Can't thank you enough. You are now my Baking Guru!

Baked banana bread for the first time and I must say that your recipes are always perfect! Perfect ingredients, perfect instructions and perfect quantities specified

I love this recipe so much, I've made this banana bread more than 10 times now and it always comes out perfect!!
Thank you John!

I recently introduced your channel to my husband.
Me: this guy’s pretty cool! He’s a former science teacher turned food blogger.
Husband: so he’s.... “Baking Bad”.
That is all he calls you now. 😂😩

Had 3 overripe bananas on the counter and used them to make this. It is really good. I added nutmeg also. Thanks for sharing.

That boy is going to melt a lot of hearts... he’s so adorable!

The brown sugar you used looks like our (UK) 'Light Soft Brown Sugar'. We also have Dark Soft Brown, Demera (looks like granulated, but brown), muscovado and pale brown 'Golden Caster Sugar' which gives a slight caramel taste to cakes and biscuits. Hope this helps. Love ALL your gorgeous recipes 😘💞💖💓

I just made this recipe, and it's the best banana bread recipe I've found. Light and airy. Just amazingly delish! I added some walnuts. Yum, yum!!!! Thank you, darling!!

[anjana_rgalx]

Just had my entire family try it and they LOVED it.

A few alterations I made:
- Used whipped up browned butter to bring a nutty flavor when paired with brown sugar. Trust me on this. It's soo much better.
- I had to measure the brown sugar in cups instead of in weight because 150g originally yielded too much sugar for me!
- had to separate the batter into 2 baking dishes for baking
- only baked the bread for about 40 mins in my oven! It was perfectly cooked.

I feel like I say this so many times, but you have such a calm and cheerful presence! It’s like infectious peace and happiness. (And your son is super cute!)

[staceya]

I made this today, leaving out the cinnamon, adding cardamom and walnuts. Amaaaazing 🥰
