Banana Bread

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Generously grease the bottom of a 9x5x3 loaf pan.
  2. Stir all ingredients together in the pan with a fork until just moistened.
  3. Beat vigorously for 1 minute.
  4. Bake at 350°F for 55–65 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Run a knife around the sides of the loaf to loosen. Remove from pan.
  6. Cool completely before slicing.
Ripe bananas matter: The riper the better — very spotty or nearly black bananas give the most flavor and sweetness.

Bisquick shortcut: The Bisquick handles the leavening, so no need to measure baking powder or flour separately.
