Ingredients

• 3 pieces Ripe bananas
• 1 box Boxed yellow cake mix
• 2 pieces Eggs
• 0.33 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.25 cup Water
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional)
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
• 0.5 cup Chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.

Step 3

Add the boxed yellow cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined. The batter should be thick and smooth.

Step 4

If desired, mix in the ground cinnamon for a hint of spice, and fold in chopped nuts or chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.

Step 5

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking for doneness around 45 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the banana bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 8

Serve slices warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
