Tips

Here are some tips to help you achieve the best banana bread:

  • Make sure your bananas are ripe for the best flavor and texture. You can ripen them quickly by placing them in a brown paper bag for a day or two.
  • Be sure to cream your butter and sugar together well to help create a light and fluffy texture in your bread.
  • If you don't have self-raising flour, you can make your own by combining 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt.
  • Don't overmix your batter, as this can lead to a tough and dense bread.
  • Feel free to add in other mix-ins, such as chocolate chips, raisins, or dried fruit.
