Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large very ripe bananas Make sure the bananas are very ripe for the best flavor.
Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour Any gluten-free flour blend can be used, but results may vary.
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Position the oven rack to the lower-third position, just below the center.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Lightly grease a 9×5 loaf pan and line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
  4. Add in the eggs and vanilla, whisking them in.
  5. In a small bowl, mash the bananas until smooth, then add them to the batter and whisk to combine.
  6. Add the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt to the mixture. Using a rubber spatula, mix everything together until no dry streaks of flour remain.
  7. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
Baking
  1. Bake for 50-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If the top browns too much, tent it loosely with foil.
Cooling
  1. Let the bread cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Remove it from the pan and allow it to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Wrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and store at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, toast slices in a toaster or microwave for a few seconds.
