Ingredients
  

Mashed Bananas

  • 1.5 cups Mashed Bananas (about 3 large bananas)
  • 0.5 cups Vegetable Oil
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (163 C).
  • Mash bananas with a fork.
  • Lightly beat eggs.
  • Stir mashed bananas, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract & sugar together in a large bowl. Stir until completely mixed.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients (except chopped pecans) to the bowl. Stir with a large spoon until the batter is fully mixed.
  • Add ¾ cup of chopped pecans to the batter and save the remaining ¼ cup for later. Stir until the pecans are evenly mixed throughout the batter.
  • Pour the finished batter into a nonstick or greased bread pan. Smooth out the top of the batter within the bread pan.
  • Sprinkle the remaining chopped pecans (¼ cup) on top of the batter within the bread pan.
  • Bake in the oven for 65-70 minutes at 325 F (163 C).
  • Take out of oven and let the banana bread cool down in the bread pan for 10 minutes. Do not remove the banana bread from the bread pan during this 10 minute cool down period.
  • After 10 minutes, remove the banana bread from the bread pan. Place the banana bread on a cooling rack in order to completely cool.
  • Gently slide a silicon spatula between the banana bread and the bread pan walls if the banana bread is stuck in the pan.
