Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 cup white whole-wheat flour (210 grams)
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups mashed ripe bananas (610 grams or about 7 medium/large bananas)
  • ½ cup coconut oil (melted)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Loaf pan
  • Fork or potato masher
  • Spatula

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the bread bakes evenly.
  2. Step 2: Grease your loaf pan with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  3. Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the white whole-wheat flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Step 4: In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
  5. Step 5: Add the melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until well blended.
  6. Step 6: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the two together until just combined.
  7. Step 7: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  8. Step 8: Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Step 9: Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for the best sweetness.
  • Don’t overmix; a few lumps are okay!
  • Check for doneness a few minutes before baking time is up.
