Recipe Notes
- I like to slightly under bake my bread. Just where it's a tiny bit moist in the center on the top.
- Before it's completely cool, I cover with plastic wrap. This makes the top of the bread ooey gooey and super moist.
Here's how you make it:
- Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl.
- Combine the rest of the ingredients in another bowl.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients together.
- Pour into two greased and floured 9x5-inch loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees F about 30 minutes.

My sweet neighbor Robin brought me over a loaf today. Between me and my renter, we’ve inhaled it. Robin doubled the recipe and made four loafs to share, and she shared the recipe. I have 10 bananas on my counter that have been screaming, we’re ready! I’m going to do some late night baking and include a copy of Grandma’s Recipe, and your link. I’m following….Thanks for sharing!
