Description

Enjoy warm, comforting homemade goodness with this easy Pillsbury Banana Bread recipe. Transform overripe bananas into a moist and delicious loaf perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. Simple steps guarantee a family favorite every time!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans) or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash bananas until smooth with small lumps.
  3. Add vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract to mashed bananas. Mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. If using, fold in chopped nuts or chocolate chips.
  7. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
  9. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and moisture.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter to prevent a tough bread.
  • Measure ingredients accurately for consistent results.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling.
