List of Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 cup quick cooking oats
  • 1 tsp baking soda

1 Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 X 5 bread pan with cooking spray. Once the oven is preheated, place the bananas, with the peels on, in the oven for about 10 minutes until the skins become completely black. This will caramelize the banana and add a more intense flavor to the bread. This is a great trick if your bananas aren’t completely ripe. Let them cool. Remove peels and mash with fork. If you are pressed for time, you can skip this step and just use very ripe mashed bananas.
