Ingredient for Banana Bread

Ripe Banana :

The sole need for creating banana bread is that the bananas are ripe. Its banana bread time when the skins start to develop freckles and the fruits are just a touch too mushy for enjoyable nibbling.

Vanilla Extract :

Vanilla's effect in sweet baked goods is similar to that of salt in savoury baked goods: it enhances all of the other flavours in the recipe. Cookies and pastries without it tend to taste flat and boring.

Unsalted Butter:

Some banana bread recipes use oil, but butter works best in this recipe. It also provides more flavor than using just oil. Unsalted Butter control the amount of salt that's added.

Baking soda:

Baking soda help this bread rise as it bakes.

All Purpose flour :

This gives the banana bread its structure. Just make sure to spoon and level your flour when measuring it to avoid having too much.
