Ingredients:

  • 3 large overripe bananas, mashed (approx. 340g)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted melted butter (115g)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed (150g)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (60g)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (5ml)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (250g)
  • 1 tsp baking soda (5g)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (3g)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon (2g)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. Use a fork to mash the bananas in a bowl until mostly smooth with only a few small lumps remaining.
  3. Stir in the melted butter, brown sugar, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until the mixture is a uniform, creamy consistency.
  4. Sift the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon directly into the wet mixture.
  5. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet batter. Stop as soon as no streaks of flour remain to avoid overmixing.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the crust is mahogany-colored and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
