Description

Heartier than normal banana bread, this Banana Oat Bread makes the perfect breakfast bread! Just sweet enough with great texture, this bread is the best way to start the day.


Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup 2% milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 45 medium bananas)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF.  Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. You can also line the pan with parchment paper and then spray that with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, vegetable oil, milk and eggs. Mix until combined. Stir in the bananas.

In another bowl, combine the oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Add the dry ingredient to the wet ingredients all at once and stir until combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.  Transfer to the oven and bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes. You will probably need to cover the top with foil about halfway through the baking time to avoid over-browning the loaf.

Let the loaf cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Allow to cool completely before cutting.
