Time 1h20m

Yield one 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf; 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 large ripe bananas
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
One 15.25-ounce box spice cake mix

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the longer sides.
  • Mash 3 of the bananas with a fork in a large bowl until very smooth, reserving the fourth and least-bruised banana for the bread topper. Whisk in the eggs and cake mix until just combined and no lumps remain.
  • Transfer to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a small offset spatula. Slice the remaining banana in half lengthwise, then place the halves cut-side up on top of the batter, with the curves facing each other. Bake until deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
  • Transfer the loaf pan to a wire rack to cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Run a knife or offset spatula around the edges of the pan, then invert the banana bread onto the wire rack and cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread in a loaf pan: A loaf pan will help the bread rise evenly.
  • Check the bread for doneness with a toothpick: Insert a toothpick into the center of the bread. If it comes out clean, the bread is done.
  • Let the bread cool before slicing: This will help the bread hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.
