One-Bowl Banana Bread

Soft, moist, and full of that banana-cinnamon comfort we all love. No mixers, no fuss β€” just one bowl, a fork, and your coziest kitchen vibes.

πŸ“ Ingredients (makes 1 loaf / 8–10 slices)

  • 3 very ripe bananas (approx. 300 g peeled)

  • 75 g melted butter (or neutral oil)

  • 2 eggs

  • 100 g sugar (or 80 g if using sweet toppings)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  • Β½ tsp salt

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 200 g all-purpose flour

  • Optional: 50 g chopped nuts, chocolate, or dried fruit

🍴 How to Make

  1. Preheat oven to 175Β°C (fan 160Β°C). Grease a loaf pan or line with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth.

  3. Add melted butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.

  4. Sprinkle in the baking soda and stir in the flour. Fold gently until combined β€” don’t overmix. If using nuts or extras, stir them in now.

  5. Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 45–55 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

  6. Let cool slightly in the pan, then turn out onto a rack. Serve warm or at room temp.
