Maple Banana Bread


  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 1x

Description

A moist and flavorful banana bread sweetened naturally with pure maple syrup, perfect for breakfast or a snack.


Ingredients

Scale

3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, pure maple syrup, and melted unsalted butter. Mix well until smooth.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the banana mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the plain Greek yogurt until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the banana bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
