Brava Banana Bread

It takes me by surprise each time, but bananas go bad so quickly. The day before heading back to school I bought a bunch and have been eating one every other day. (The Peanut Butter & Banana Overnight Oats use 1 banana for 2-servings!) The best option for those way too ripe bananas is to toss them in a bowl, mash them up and make this loaf of delicious goodness that doubles as both breakfast and a snack! x

Brava Banana Bread

Prep Time: 10 Minutes     Cook Time: 50 Minutes     Total Time: 1 Hour

Let’s Get Started:

2-3 very ripe bananas, peeled and mashed
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 cups flour
1 egg, beaten
Pinch of salt
3/4 cups sugar (1/2 cup if you want it less sweet! I use 1/2 cup and no one notices the difference!)

Let’s Get Cooking:

Preheat oven to 350* and lightly coat a loaf pan with butter or vegetable cooking spray. Mash bananas in a medium sized bowl and add butter. Mix in egg, vanilla extract, baking soda and sugar. When fully mixed, add flour in increments. Bake for 50 minutes to an hour, and enjoy! x

Let’s Get Creative:

This recipe would be particularly delicious with some added chocolate chips or chopped nuts!

Stay Classy! xx
