I found the best banana bread recipe and I just had to share it!
It is originally from ‘De groene meisjes’ and written in Dutch, but because the world needs to know the recipe, I decided to translate it. So here it is! Please let me know if you make it, because it is honestly amazing!
Notes
- For banana bread the general rule is, the browner the banana the better. Just keep in mind that the browner the banana, the more ‘wet’ your banana bread will be. So if you prefer a banana bread that is a bit dryer, use less milk. Or use bananas that are not as ripe (this does make it less sweet.)
- The original recipe called for Plant-based milk, which you can substitute here as well. I just prefer real milk.
- The recipe calls for oat flour and spelt flour. You can experiment with different types of flour though. I have used just flour, a combination of oats and regular flour etc. So use what you have and try which type you like best!
