This is my absolute favourite recipe for making banana bread, the addition of yoghurt makes it so much softer and more moist.
BANANA BREAD RECIPE
100g unsalted butter
1/2 cup firmly packed (100g) brown sugar
1 egg
4-5 bananas (450g total), mashed
3 tablespoons (1/4 cup) natural yoghurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 2/3 cups (250g) plain flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Masterfoods Ground Cinnamon
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted (optional)
Step 1
Preheat oven to 170°C (not fan-forced) and grease a 900ml loaf pan.
Step 2
Beat butter and sugar in a bowl using electric beaters until thick and fluffy.
Step 3
Add egg and beat until well combined.
Step 4
Add banana, yoghurt and vanilla extract and stir. Sift together flour, baking powder and cinnamon and fold through batter. Stir in walnuts if using. Pour into pan and bake for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn onto a rack to cool completely
I hope you enjoy!!
