Banana Bread
Ingredients
- 3 medium overripe bananas
- 70g granulated sugar
- 70g brown sugar
- 78ml vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 250g all-purpose flour
- 5g baking soda
- 5g ground cinnamon
- 5g teaspoon salt
- 100g chopped walnuts (or pecans, or chocolate chips)
- brown sugar to sprinkle on top
Directions
Preheat the oven to 180℃.
Lightly oil a 9-inch loaf pan and arrange a strip of parchment paper width-wise along the center, with just a bit hanging out over each side.
Peel the bananas and place them into a large mixing bowl. Mash them well with a fork or potato masher.
Add sugar, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla to the bowl. Stir until well-mixed.
Add the flour to the bowl, then sprinkle the baking soda, cinnamon and salt on top of the flour.
Stir everything together just until mixed. Don't over-mix. The batter will be thick.
Fold in the walnuts.
Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top with the back of a spoon.
Sprinkle the top with brown sugar.
Bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and transfer it to a cooling rack.
