In this recipe, I have used whole-wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour, which makes this bread wholesome. Even if you don’t love bananas like my son, then also you can’t get over this banana bread. Just try once!
Let’s dig into the recipe without any further delay.
INGREDIENTS
Whole Wheat Flour – 1 Cup
Sugar – ¾ Cup

Milk – ¼ cup
Eggs – 3(small)
Baking Soda – ½ tsp
Baking Powder – 1 tsp
Add-ons (choc chips / walnuts / Raisins ) – ¼ Cup
Simple Banana Bread Recipe
Step 1
Mix butter, milk and sugar powder. Whisk it properly until it looks creamy. Now, add eggs (img 4) and again whisk it properly and then add bananas (mashed or pureed)
Step 2
In a separate bowl, mix all the dry ingredients – wheat flour, baking powder and baking soda.
Step 3
Prepare the tin for baking by greasing it or using butter paper.
Put all the dry ingredients in the pan with the mixture (mentioned in step 1) and make a batter. Now, add any add-ons you like as mentioned in the ingredients. I have added raisins to it. Gently fold the mixture and put it in the baking tin.
Step 4
It’s time to bake your bread at 170 C for 40-50 minutes (until the knife/tooth pick comes out clear).
Tips
- Bake the cake at 170 C; this makes the cake bake slowly and retain the moisture.
- I like to blend my banana and make it a puree before putting it in the mixture. If you like chunks, then just mash it softly.
- Make sure the bananas are fully ripe for rich flavour.
- Feel free to replace white sugar with light or dark brown sugar.
This can be your go-to recipe for banana bread if you follow some of the tips.
I have followed so many cake recipes, but the ingredients and the above-mentioned tips make this the best banana bread recipe for me.
