Banana Bread Honey Recipe
This Banana Bread Honey recipe combines ripe bananas, honey, and basic baking ingredients for a naturally sweet and moist loaf. With flour, eggs, butter, baking soda, and a touch of vanilla, it’s a quick, delicious treat. Bake at 350°F for 55-60 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Fork or potato masher (for bananas)
- Whisk or electric mixer
- Loaf pan (9×5 inch recommended)
- Spatula
- Cooling rack
Ingredients
- 6 ripe bananas mashed
- 1/2 cup honey raw or organic preferred
- 2/3 cup coconut oil melted
- 4 large eggs at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups whole wheat flour white or regular
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup milk any kind or water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper to make removing the bread easier.
- In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in the honey, melted coconut oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk (or water) until the mixture is well combined. In another bowl, sift or whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Gently fold them together with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined—be careful not to over mix, as this will keep the bread tender.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
