2 Cups Unbleached All Purpose Flour
3/4 Cup Sugar
3/4 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 Teaspoon Table Salt
3 Very Ripe Bananas Mashed well Approximately 1 1/2 Cups (Ripe Bananas are sweeter and have more moisture)
1/4 Cup Plain Yogurt (the Yogurt adds moisture and a nice tang)
2 Large Eggs Beaten lightly
6 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter Melted and cooled
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Make sure oven rack is in the lower middle position. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour bottom and sides of your Loaf Pan. Sometimes I use one large Loaf Pan and other times I like to use 3 mini pans and make mini loafs. Combine the first 4 ingredients together in a large bowl and set aside.
Mix mashed bananas, Yogurt, Eggs, Butter and Vanilla with a in a medium bowl. Lightly fold the banana mixture into the dry ingredients, with a spatula, until just combined. The batter should look thick and chunky. Do not over mix. Scrape the batter your pan or pans. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This should be about 55 minutes. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then remove from pan and cool on wire racks to finish cooling.
Serve. I like mine for breakfast with butter. :D
Some people (most :D ) like Walnuts in their Banana Bread. If so add 1 1/4 Cups Toasted and Coarsely Chopped Walnuts. Add them to the dry ingredients at the beginning.
Enjoy
