Instructions

  • Preheat a fan forced oven to 190°C.
  • Mash the bananas in a bowl and stir in wet ingredients with a fork.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients, making sure to sift the flour for extra fluffiness. Gradually stir in wet ingredients and continue to mix until well blended.

  • Let cool before serving and enjoy!

Notes

When developing this recipe, the bananas I used were on the larger side. If your bananas are small, I suggest using up to four.
