Ingredients
3 ripe bananas, mashed
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the mashed ripe bananas, plain Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, eggs, and pure vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
