- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 medium Ripe bananas (mashed)
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ cup Full-fat yogurt
- ¾ cup Sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 large Eggs
- ½ cup Butter (melted)
Preheat your oven to 350°F (or 365°F for high altitude).
Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tsp of baking soda, and ½ tsp of salt.
In another bowl, beat 2 large eggs and ¾ cup of sugar until light and fluffy. Add ½ cup of melted butter, 3 mashed ripe bananas, ½ cup of full-fat yogurt, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Let the banana bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
