Ingredients
Banana Bread
- 2 large eggs
- 3 ripe bananas mashed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Cinnamon Crumble Topping
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
Instructions
- Prepare oven and pan: Preheat oven to 350°F and grease 4 mini loaf pans or one 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, mashed bananas, sugar, oil, and Greek yogurt.
- Add dry ingredients: Add the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Make crumble topping: In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the butter and use your fingers or a fork to mix until crumbs form.
- Assemble: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. If making mini loaves, divide the batter evenly between the pans. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter.
- Bake: Bake for about 45 minutes for mini loaves or 60 minutes for one large loaf. Start checking a few minutes early. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes, then carefully remove and transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling before slicing.
Notes
- For the best banana flavor, use ripe bananas with plenty of brown spots.
- Avoid overmixing the batter, as this can result in dense banana bread.
- Baking times may vary depending on your oven and the size of the loaf pans.
- Store cooled banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, refrigerate for up to 6 days, or freeze for up to 4 months.
