Ingredients
1 1/2 cups well-mashed overripe bananas this is usually 3 large ripe bananas for me (355ml/385g)
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil (60ml)
1/4 cup unsalted butter melted (60g)
2/3 cup light or dark brown sugar firmly packed (135g)
1/2 cup granulated sugar 100g
2 large eggs lightly beaten, room temperature preferred
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup buttermilk 60ml
2 cups all-purpose plain flour (250g)
3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup coarse or granulated sugar for sprinkling optional (50g)
Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:24 Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and grease the bottom and 1/2" up the sides of a 9x5 bread pan. Set aside.
00:30 Combine mashed bananas, canola oil, and melted butter in a large bowl and stir until well-combined.
01:52 Add sugars and stir well.
02:01 Stir in eggs and vanilla extract.
02:26 Add buttermilk and stir until thoroughly combined.
02:48 In a separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
03:06 Add dry ingredients to wet and carefully, gently using a spatula (not an electric mixer) fold ingredients together until just combined. Don't overmix the batter or your banana cake could end up dense/dry.
03:45 Pour batter into prepared pan and, if desired, sprinkle generously with coarse sugar.
04:42 Transfer to 350F (175C) oven and bake 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted all the way into the center of the cake comes out clean or preferably with a few moist crumbs. Do not over-bake your banana cake or it will be dry.

I really MUST try this banana bread recipe! It looks exactly like the banana bread my Mom made for us when we were kids! We are now 73, 70 and 67. I'm the 70 year old "kid". 😃
I hope everyone loves it! I hope it brings back the wonderful memories of years ago. That's one of the best things about baking and food. :)
@@SugarSpunRun❤❤❤❤❤❤YOU the best cook ever
My family voted today on the best banana bread recipe I've made this year. This is hands down the best I've ever made! 1/2 butter and 1/2 oil, buttermilk and to top it off, the sugar on top brought the grand finale. Thank you!
I'm so happy my recipe was a hit for your family ❤️
My wife and I have had a lot of extra time on our hands lately and have been baking up a storm ,we think you are a breath of fresh air and would like to thank you for your diligence and hard work to keep these recipes streaming, oh and this banana bread rocks especially with the sugar sprinkled on top thank you so much.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. It's very nice to know that my recipes are well appreciated. You made my day. Happy baking! :)
OMG!!! Sam this recipe is honestly the absolute BEST banana bread I have ever had in my life. I was having a banana bread craving about a week ago so I just googled a recipe. It was okay but lacking in flavor. More than half of the loaf is still sitting in my kitchen. That recipe included cinnamon, and I thought maybe next time I'd add a little bit more. Your recipe doesn't call for any cinnamon but did include buttermilk, which was the only ingredient I had to go to the store for. The difference in flavor is CRAZY! Your recipe turned out much brighter and much more moist. And the sugar on top made the yummiest crunchy topping. My bananas were just barely brown so I can only imagine how great the recipe would be with very brown bananas. Sorry for the rant but I am so impressed with this recipe and literally every single recipe of yours that I've tried has been excellent. You need to be on the Food Network!
Thank you so much! That means so much to me. 😊 thank you for taking the time to write this out for me. These kinds of comments make my day. I’m so glad you enjoyed the banana bread.
I just made this and it was great! A tip: if you want to ripen your bananas more, pop them in the oven for 10-12 minutes at 350 while they are still in their peels. They will come out totally blackened and very mushy on the inside…which is exactly what you want for baking!! 😊
I have heard of baking the bananas before but I've never tried it.
It works like a charm! I do 350 for 12 minutes!!
I am 71 years old and this is the best recipe for banana bread I have ever made and tasted! I did not change a single thing by the way. 😉
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
@@SugarSpunRun …. Not only did I love this bread but so did my two daughters, and two granddaughters, one who doesn’t like nuts but she tried it anyways. And she loved it!! When I am searching for a recipe, I will be looking at you first!
This is my go to recipe. Have made it at least a dozen times. A perfect gift for new neighbors. So delicious!!
I'm so glad everyone has enjoyed it so much! :)
Banana bread in the oven. It’s for my church Christmas breakfast. Banana bread usually taste even better a few days after, that’s why I am making it two days before. This was the best recipe by far, I was googling all day and the butter oil combo did it for me. I added chocolate chips and put slices of banana on top for decor. 😁
I hope everyone loves it! :)
Can't get enough of this bread. Made it twice this week. My blood sugar will be at record level.
I'm so glad you enjoy it so much! :)
This is the Best Banana bread ever. Thanks Samantha. I don't like vegetable oil so I used more butter and also put in chocolate chips and pecans. Everyone loves it. Thank you again
You're welcome! I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it! :)
You always have my back in the kitchen. Thanks again!
Tried this recipe back to back with our old recipe. This won hands down! Thank you so much!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! 😃
I have made banana bread before, but never one as tasty and moist as this recipe, it is certainly my go to recipe for the future
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
This looks so moist and delicious -- thanks for sharing!

Aww thank you so much. I really appreciate that. It put a big smile on my face. Enjoy! 😊
Crazy good! Best banana bread I’ve made to date!! Thanks Sam!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 😊
I made this twice and it is by far the best banana bread recipe out there! The first time I made it I forgot to add the melted butter (left it in my microwave and totally forgot about it) and it still was delish! The second time I didn’t forget to add the melted butter and OMG, to die for!
I'm so glad you made it a second time--the butter adds such a nice flavor! 💛
LOL I did the same thing and it still came out moist. That's so funny. I have made it since and it is better with the butter!
Hello!
I've tried so many of your recipes and EVERY one of them was so delicious!!
Looking forward to another great recipe!
Thank you so much for sharing!! 💗
You're very welcome! I hope you love this banana bread! I really appreciate your support. :)

I gave this a try the other day and it turned out pretty good! Definitely better than some of the other recipes I tried this past year.
Glad you liked it!!
I guess I'm about 3 years late to the party haha. I made this banana bread yesterday and everyone loved it. I added a little cocoa powder to it and chocolate chips. Thank you for doing a video on this and sharing it!! Great channel.
You should definitely try my new chocolate banana bread next!

Love for videos! Keep up with the good work
Thank you so much! 😊
Hi Sam,
I really love watching your baking videos. I enjoy learning how to bake from scratch and want to improve my cooking skills. I only did your banana bread recipe once. I going to make it again someday, but this time I'm going to add chocolate chips to make it into a chocolate chip banana bread or add walnuts to make it into a banana nut bread. This video really helped me to learn how to bake. Thanks for sharing your banana bread recipe. It was very delicious!!!
I'm definitely going to try this recipe. I made your chocolate cake and it was the best I've ever had! It was so moist and chocolaty. I have even made it in a bundt pan and it came out superbly! I'm looking to you now for all my sweet recipe needs. You are the BOMB!
Thank you so much! 😊😊
Yesssss..thank you for posting..looks awesome..cabt wait to try 👍😊👏
I hope you love it! 😊
Thank you😊
Hi, I'm a fan from the Philippines. I really love how you show the baking steps so easily and it is really a big help for someone like me who is just a beginner. I tried the banana cake and I would agree, its the best, my children loves it ❤
Thank you so much! I am so glad everyone enjoyed it. :)
Oh my goodness!! I just made a double batch of this, and it's THE BEST Recipe for Banana bread I've EVER found!! Thank you so much, 🥰

Thank you so much! I hope you love it! 😊
just tried this and it turned out so delicious!! it was verrryyyy moist and the flavor was just so good. i reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup and added a teaspoon of cinnamon. i also made a cream cheese filling since i had extra cream cheese and topped the bread with some chopped walnuts and chocolate chips.
this will now be my go-to recipe!! thank you so much sugar spun run!
I am so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
I love how people say I changed three things, then turn around a say I loved your recipe. Lol
@@300zxdriver that’s true!!!
First time I tried your Banana Muffins I added Orange 🍊 Zest in and little bit Whisky 🥃, oh of course my favorite thing Dark and Milk Chocolate Chips too, and add on top Your Streusel Recipe and sprinkled Organic Tamarind Sugar My husband and my adult boys devoured them. Thank you sooo much for your amazing 😉 and yummy recipes. If I can give 💯 stars ⭐️ I will do it 😍💗
Those sound like some excellent additions! I am so glad everyone enjoyed the muffins. I appreciate your support. 😊😊
I made this recipe today since i had 2 bunches of bananas that were too ripe to eat. The Banana bread came out really good. I love all your recipes. Thank you n God Bless you.

Greetings Sam!! I made two loaves of this banana bread (one with pecans and one without) and have been informed it is the best banana bread I've ever made!! Thank you for all your excellent recipes! I am having much fun entertaining friends and family with your great recipes!!
Warmest and Best,
Lloyd
Wonderful! I'm so happy it's a hit for you!
Thank you for the recipe. I made it yesterday and turned out very well. I did reduce the sugar level due to personal preference, otherwise it’s the best recipe I’ve tried.
Thanks again. You earned a new subscriber. 😅
Welcome to the channel! I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
I can always depend on your recipes to turn out fantastic. I’ve made the banana muffins and this bread. I didn’t have any buttermilk, and it was close to midnight, so I used sour cream. I double the recipe for 2 loaves. They turned out great.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
thank you for explaining why we need to use butter and oil other videos don't explain it
You’re welcome! 😊
This recipe was rlly good! I put some brown sugar on top instead and it added such a nice crunch. Will be making again!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
@@SugarSpunRunOfc! Ive made it 3 times now and it just keeps getting better

That’s awesome! I’m so glad it was a hit!
awesome bread !
Thank you! :)
Hey, quick question: are you adding water to the other pan below?
Hey Sam, I just made this recipe. Used your buttermilk substitute with lime juice as the acid. Had small eggs so used 3 instead and had some homemade blueberry sauce so I decided to make it into a blueberry banana bread..It was simply amazing!! I decided to cut into it while still warm and the texture shocked me!! it was so soft and moist...Couldn't believe it was my own baking as I'm a novice baker!! Cheers to this one!!🥂🥂🥂 I'm curious to try this out again but with real buttermilk...Thanks!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
@@SugarSpunRun Hey Sam, so I just made this banana bread again to give to someone. First time I made this it developed a huge crack along the entire length to one side. I thought, no bigs as I seen other people's banana bread crack as well. This time, it developed two cracks down the length on either side of the center-line and between the cracks looked like a crusty cap or hat on my bread. Was kinda ugly but texture inside and taste was on point. I did double sift my flour. Could that be the cause of the cracks?
Good morning 👩🍳 this morning I’m baking this beautiful bread cause I have bananas left and I know will enjoy it thank you for sharing ❤️😋for the week end I’m doing your white cake with little Color in it but only 2 stage 🥰🙏
I hope you love the bread and the cake! Thanks for choosing my recipes ❤️
Mine is in the oven!! Can't wait to taste this Sam!! 😋
Yum...enjoy!
@@SugarSpunRun so good!!! Thanks for sharing!
Simply the Bessssst I mean really THE BEST👌 👍 😍 Banana Bread recipe out there 😋 yummy omggg it's sooooooo Good Goood Goooood!!! Thank you Sugar Spun Run 'Hun🤗❤️💕🙏
Thank you so much 😃
Whew. I thought I lost your banana bread recipe. I'm making this version at a client's home tomorrow!!! ❤😊
I hope they love it! 😊 If you cant find it on UA-cam you can always search my website. I have a new search bar that I really like. 😊
@@SugarSpunRun found it . Thank you.
Hi, Thanks😊😊
Enjoy! :)
It was THE BEST recipe, thank you so much ❤️ one thing - i reduced amount of sugar to 30% and it was still to sweet for me. Still THE BEST
I have NO words because I am truly enjoying the best banana nut bread warm!! 😋 😋😋 So good!!
I'm so glad you like it! 🥰
@@SugarSpunRun 😍
Hi Sam, how are you? I have a question. Is it okay if I line the loaf pan with parchment paper?
That should work just fine. 😊
Hey Sam, think I can use sourdough discard instead of buttermilk? How much would you say? Or should I just stick with making the buttermilk with lemon and milk
I actually have a sourdough banana bread that uses sourdough discard. :) sugarspunrun.com/sourdough-banana-bread/
U really rock star in baking...thank you so much for your recipes...❤️...today I going to make this bread....we expect more delicious recipes.,..am from Cochin Kerala...TQ u🔥❤️🙏🏾
Thank you so much! I hope you loved the bread! :)
@@SugarSpunRun Exactly 💯 👌 Thank you 😊 🙏
Love your recipe, how about adding any spices cinnamon, clove are all spice.?
You could try experimenting with them if you'd like. I haven't personally added any of those so I wouldn't be able to advise exactly how much of which ones to add. That's really going to be a personal preference. :)
So yesterday I looked to see your banana bread recipe and only found your muffins, so now I’m baking a different one and looking at your recipe- how I did not find it yesterday, I don’t know. Well I’ll have to try yours next time!! You are my go to for baking sugary sweets!! So sad lol
Thank you so much! I’m glad you were able to find what you were looking for though. 😊
Hi Sugar! Hey I’m definitely trying this baking recipe & let u know how was it later✌🏼
I hope you loved it! :)
Sugar Spun Run - I did sugar! Thanks for those delicious recipes!👌🏼
Hello sugar spun can I use the same recipe but instead of banana I take apple cause I don’t find any apple Dutch bread thank you in advançe 🙏♥️🇨🇦😎
Unfortunately I don’t think apples will be a good substitute here. I have been working on an apple bread but haven’t quite perfected it yet.
Ooh this looked delicious!!😳Before eating it, I like to smother in butter and peanut butter!😆😜😋
That's a great idea! :)
Hi Sam,
I have a question. What do you use to grease your loaf pan before you flour it? Vegetable shortening or butter?
I use crisco to grease the pans. :)
I do butter 🧈
Can I use a 1/4 cup coconut oil instead of vegetable oil??
Probably
Hi Sam, how are you?
Can I add cinnamon to the banana bread batter? I think banana bread would taste great with a little bit of cinnamon. How much do I need to use?
I'm doing very well, and I hope the same for you! You can cinnamon, but this is entirely up to taste. I would guess somewhere between 1/2 and 1 teaspoon. Enjoy! :)
If i omit 1/2 cup granulated sugar, would it turn out ok?
I haven’t tried it but it should probably still turn out. 😊
I used 3/4 cups of brown sugar only and it is still moist and delicious. I have type 2 diabetes so I usually use less sugar 😊
Can I brown my butter before adding?
That should work just fine. :)
Just made this, turned out amazing flavor wise, however it didn’t grow as much as I wanted it to. I had to separate the batter into two bread pans (they were smaller), and made a buttermilk substitute instead (buttermilk is extremely hard to find heres where I live). Could this be the reason.
Thank you so much for this amazing recipe 😍😊
Hmmm breaking it into 2 pans shouldn't cause you any issues. Are your baking soda/powder still good? That's the biggest thing I could think of here. :(
Since you only need 1/4 cup of buttermilk, could you use yogurt?
I haven’t tried it so I can’t say exactly how it could be done but it could work. It may need to be thinned or the amount adjusted, but without having tried it I just can’t say for sure. 😔
@@SugarSpunRun I'm going to try because it's such a small amount.
I also want try out your banana bread recipe also!!!!
Definitely a great choice. I can't wait to hear how everything goes! :)
I'm pretty sure somebody may have already said this but if you put bananas in the freezer and wait about 30 minutes and I'll go ahead and get it ripe that you need them
So I tried this recipe and the banana bread was not too good it wasn't that sweet and banana flavor was just not there but I think it's because I used frozen riped bananas I did let them thaw out but just was not too good. Do you think it's because of the frozen bananas I used ?
I’m so sorry. The frozen bananas themselves aren’t the problem but if they weren’t really ripe you’ll lose a lot of flavor there.
@@SugarSpunRun They were actually really really ripe but they had been in the freezer for at least 1-2 months
can i substitute buttermilk with sourcream?
I have never substituted using sour cream so I am not certain how it will do. I do have a buttermilk substitute that you can use instead. I hope that you enjoy the banana bread. 🙂
Can I steam it?
Hmmm I'm not sure. I haven't tried it. If you do let me know how it goes. :)
I have a 2lb loaf tin, would that be suitable for this recipe?
That should work. Make sure to not overfill your pan and your bake time may vary slightly if your pan is a little different in size. 😊
@@SugarSpunRun I can't wait to make this, I know my dad will love it. Thank you for getting back to me. I have tried two of your recipes already and my entire family loved them both.
Trying this one since I can't seem to eat all the bananas I buy
Great idea! 🙂
Hey Sam! I just created this recipe and oh my it was actually good for my first time making it! This is the same 15 but now 16 year old making the banana cake a while back from one of the videos on your channel, and I enjoyed it just like I did the cake. I actually ran out of brown sugar and had to head to Google to figure out what to replace it with, and I ended up replacing it with syrup 😅 but you know what it actually ended up tasting alright, hopefully I can recreate this recipe and actually use brown sugar the next time. I also have a question, is there anything you can do with leftover butter milk? It would be a shame to throw away but i just want to use it up. Thank you for your wonderful recipes again and I can't wait to bake some more!
I'm so glad you hear you are still baking! I actually have a video on making brown sugar at home if you run into this issue again. :) ua-cam.com/video/iKG7rHUjDis/v-deo.html
For the buttermilk usage, I have lots and lots of options:
Chocolate Chip Muffins: ua-cam.com/video/kqWklhhg0qw/v-deo.html
Buttermilk Pancakes: ua-cam.com/video/truwGFiXLMg/v-deo.html
Buttermilk Cornbread: ua-cam.com/video/5eZhdDG7i3Q/v-deo.html
Drop Biscuits: ua-cam.com/video/Gto4bzP0R2o/v-deo.html
And those are just a few off the top of my head I'm sure I could think of more if you need. :)
@@SugarSpunRun Oh I didn't even know you could make brown sugar at home, that's so neat! Thank you, I'll definitely have to try the buttermilk pancake recipe sometime!
Hi Sam, how are you?
I was thinking about doing your banana bread recipe again and want to add chocolate chips to make it into a chocolate chip banana bread. How much chocolate chips should I use?
Hi Michelle! You can add about 1 ¼ cups of chocolate chips 😊
Sounds delicious 😍 I think I’ll add a handful of mini chocolate chips to entice the kids to eat it 🤔Thanks for sharing, Dolores......The Baking Diva 😘
Thank you so much! I hope they love it! 😊
Absolutely LOVE the muffins version, but wondering why the bread recipe doesn’t also use the two temperature method?
Hi Liza! I am so glad you enjoy the muffins! So I use two temperatures with the muffins because it helps give the muffins a nice lift, starting with that higher temperature and then dropping it helps the muffin batter rise and gives them a light fluffy body and nice high muffin tops. Banana bread is denser than muffins and we don’t need that same rise, so we can just cook it on one temperature here. I hope that helps explain it! 😊
Sugar Spun Run yes thank you! I didn’t know there was a difference between the two- I thought the bread was just a big muffin 🙈 Your extra details and explanations are so helpful! They’re helping me make more educated guesses when I’m unsure about a recipe.
I’m so happy to help. 😊
Why are we adding baking powder in addition to baking soda?
It makes for the best banana bread possible. It adds that extra lift that you would not get with just one or the other.😊
I see! Would love to see other quick bread recipes on your channel like apple fritter bread, date & walnut loaf etc. Good work!
