Ingredients
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour (optional substitution)
2 large ripe bananas, mashed
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
1 tsp baking powder
2 large eggs, tempered
1/2 cup milk (almond or oat for vegan)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two loaf pans
Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into a bowl
Mash bananas until smooth in a separate bowl
Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy
Temper eggs in lukewarm water, then add to butter mixture
Mix in vanilla extract
Blend in half the dry ingredients, then bananas and milk, repeating in three stages until combined
Divide batter between loaf pans
Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean
Notes
Use bananas with brown spots for maximum sweetness and moisture
For extra rise, substitute regular milk with buttermilk
