Ingredients

• 3 medium ripe bananas
• 113 grams unsalted butter
• 150 grams granulated sugar
• 50 grams brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 250 grams all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 120 grams plain yogurt or sour cream
• 100 grams chopped walnuts or chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly. Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the butter and whisk until combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter-sugar mixture, whisking after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the mashed bananas and mix until well combined.

Step 6

In a separate large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 7

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be thick but lumpy.

Step 8

Stir in the plain yogurt or sour cream until just combined. If using walnuts or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter.

Step 9

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 11

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Slice and serve your delicious 'We're Going Bananas Bread'. Enjoy!
