What If I Don’t Have Ripe Bananas?
Here’s how you can ripen your bananas at home!
- Simply bake unpeeled bananas on a baking sheet in a 250°F oven until soft, 15-20 minutes. Let cool, peel, and they’re ready to use in your banana bread recipe!
Tips For Making The BEST Banana Bread
- Use dark brown sugar for an extra richness in your banana bread.
- Consider adding crunchy nuts for texture!
- Bananas should be very ripe.
- To store ripe bananas: freeze with or without the peel. Return to room temperature before baking. You’ll find previously frozen bananas are easy to work with and produce extra-moist banana bread.
- With a spatula, fold dry and wet ingredients together for a tender crumb.
- Walnuts are the nut of choice for banana bread, as their slightly bitter taste complements the sweetness of the bread.
- Use a toothpick to test banana bread for doneness in three places: left, center and right side.
