Preparation

  4. Add in the mashed bananas and stir.

Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  2. Bake in the center of your preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  4. Allow the bread to cool in the pan until slightly warm or at room temperature before slicing and serving.
