Ingredients

3 ripe bananas or 1 ½ cups mashed
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour or oat flour
2 eggs
¼ cup maple syrup or honey
1 tsp baking soda

Optional Flavorings:

½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
mix-ins of choice i.e., chopped walnuts or pecans, chocolate chips, raisins, etc.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare 9x5-inch loaf pan with foil or parchment and spray with cooking spray.
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. (If desired, stir in any mix-ins, or sprinkle on any toppings.)
Bake 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. (This is the suggested bake time based on my oven, but it may vary. If it's your first time making this recipe, I recommend checking your loaf's doneness around 25-30 minutes.)
Allow to cool completely before cutting.
Store in an airtight container on the counter up to 3 days or in the fridge for a week.
