All-purpose flour is the most common choice, but whole wheat flour or a blend of different flours can also be used. Baking powder and baking soda: These leavening agents help the bread rise and become light and fluffy. Salt: Salt helps to balance the sweetness and enhance the flavor of the bread. Sugar: Sugar adds sweetness and helps to tenderize the crumb. Oil or butter: Fat adds moisture to the bread and also contributes to the flavor and texture. Oil makes the bread lighter than butter. Buttermilk or yogurt: These acidic ingredients help to activate the baking soda and create a tender crumb. Vanilla extract: Vanilla extract adds flavor and aroma to the bread. Almonds: Add-ins such as nuts can be added to give the bread extra flavor and texture. See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.
Expert Tips
Use very ripe bananas: Bananas with brown spots or even fully brown skins are ideal for banana bread. They make the bread sweeter and more flavorful. Don’t overmix the batter: Overmixing can lead to a tough and dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. Let the bread cool before slicing: Cutting into a freshly baked bread before it has cooled can cause it to fall apart or become gummy. Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Experiment with add-ins: Try adding different add-ins like nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruit. Be creative and try new combinations to find your favorite.
