Description

This banana bread is ultra soft with a delicate crumb that practically melts in your mouth. The natural sweetness
of ripe bananas pairs beautifully with brown sugar, while the butter and milk keep every slice rich and moist.
It stays tender for days and tastes even better the next day.

Tips

  • Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for the best flavor and texture.
  • For extra indulgence, add chocolate chips or chopped walnuts.
  • Cover loosely with foil if the top browns too quickly.
  • Let the bread cool fully before slicing for the cleanest cuts.

Common Mistakes & Fixes

  • Too dense? You may have overmixed—stir just until combined.
  • Dry banana bread? Reduce baking time slightly or add an extra tablespoon of milk.
  • Sunken center? Check that your baking soda is fresh and avoid opening the oven early.

Enjoy

Slice it thick, serve it warm, and enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea
. This banana bread is pure comfort—simple,
soft, and irresistibly good.
