Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a loaf pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the overripe bananas until creamy yet slightly chunky.
- Add the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- Fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for about 50-60 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
