Tips:
- Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make your banana bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread at a moderate temperature. A moderate temperature will help the bread to rise evenly and prevent it from overcooking.
- Use quality ingredients. The better the ingredients you use, the better your banana bread will be.
- Let the bread cool completely before serving. This will help the bread to set and develop its full flavor.
