This is the most delicious banana bread recipe I’ve ever tasted. After trying the traditional banana bread recipe, and other variations, this one remains as the favorite in the #sojohome.

Before creating my own version of banana bread, the original recipe I was relying on for a while was from All Recipes. And finally, during the fall of 2019, I decided to play a bit. I wanted to know if a few extra (fall-inspired) ingredients would go well with the recipe. And lo and behold, it was the best damn banana bread recipe I’ve ever tasted. If you’re a fan, I think you’ll love this version too!

Ingredients:

1. 2 cups of all-purpose flour
2. 1 teaspoon of baking soda
3. 1/4 teaspoon of salt
4. 1/2 cup of melted butter
5. 3/4 cup of brown sugar
6. 2 eggs, beaten
7. 2 1/3 cups of mashed overripe bananas, this equals to ~3 bananas
8. 1/2 cup of green apple, chopped
9. 1/2 cup of oats
10. Cinnamon, to taste
11. Crushed pecans, to taste

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a loaf pan.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, salt, butter, and brown sugar.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mash the bananas until well blended. Stir in the eggs and continue mixing until the ingredients are well blended.

Step 4

Pour the banana mix into the large bowl and mix until smooth.

Step 5

Add the apples and oats to the mixture – blend until smooth.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the loaf pan and top with cinnamon and crushed pecans.

Step 7

Bake for approximately 45 minutes to one hour. To check if the banana bread is fully cooked, insert a toothpick and ensure it comes back clean. Serve warm with coffee or tea.

You tell me if this isn’t the most flavorful and moisturizing banana bread recipe you’ve ever tasted. After eating this version of it, I don’t find the traditional banana bread recipe as satisfying. If you do try this recipe, please let me know what you think.
