Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 3/4 cup honey
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 bananas ripe, mashed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and coat a 9×5 pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mash 3 bananas using fork tines. Add the butter, honey, eggs and vanilla extract. Mix well using a wooden spoon.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt and mix well. Gradually add to the butter-sugar bowl until combined. Pour into the prepared pan and use a rubber spatula to make even. Top with 1 banana, sliced in half lengthwise (optional).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Notes
- You can sub almond extract for the vanilla flavoring in a 1:1 ratio. You can also use a little banana extract for even bigger banana flavor.
- Use Greek yogurt, applesauce, pumpkin puree, margarine or any type of nut butter to sub for the butter in the recipe.
- Use your favorite add-ins like chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or extra banana slices or other fresh fruit.
- You can use flax eggs instead of regular eggs.
- Substitute almond flour or oat flour for a gluten free version.
