Best Banana Bread Recipe

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl combine the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.

In a separate large bowl, finely mash the bananas with a fork. Whisk in eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla.

Pour the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix by hand just until combined. Do not over mix as this can make the banana bread tough.

Pour the banana bread batter into the pan and bake for about 55 minutes or until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean. While the bread cools I like to cover the warm bread with foil which moisten and softens the bread.

Enjoy as is with a cup of tea. Store at room temperature wrapped in cling wrap for up to 3 days. It also freezes really well for up to 4 weeks.
