The EASIEST Banana Bread Recipe

Into a large blender (it's important you use a large blender because the large volume of batter in this recipe) add in this exact order: two large bananas, yogurt, melted butter, vanilla, and two eggs. Blend on high for about 10 - 15 seconds. We're looking for a smooth liquid batter.

Add the sugar, sifted flour, baking soda and pinch of salt and blend again, JUST for 8-10 seconds tops! If your flour mixture isn't fully combined with the batter, unplug your blender and just take a spatula and finish mixing it by hand (see video for visuals). If you over-blend the batter, your banana bread will have gluey streaks. It will still be fine to eat but to avoid that, finish mixing the batter by hand. Remember to scrape the bottom and sides of your blender jug.

Pour the batter into an 8 inch (20 cm) loaf pan greased and lined with parchment paper, and bake in a preheated oven at 170 °C (340 °F) for about 50 - 60 minutes. If the banana bread starts to darken too much, you can cover it with some foil (see the video).

Allow the banana bread to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then remove it from the pan using the parchment paper and allow to cool completely.Store cooled banana bread in an airtight container or zip lock bag at room temperature for about 3 days.
