🍌 Ultimate Banana Bread

When ATK (America’s Test Kitchen) labels a recipe Ultimate is not just an ordinary recipe. It means that even for a common recipe, the recipe makes a significant difference.
This banana bread recipe is no exception. Perfectly sweet, moist, and rich in banana flavor… it is truly a perfected recipe.
🔗 The ATK recipe is normally for paid members only, but it is freely available on YouTube! The beginning of the video contains information about bananas, and the actual recipe explanation starts in the middle.
👇 I’ve created a link that starts the video right at the recipe section.
Tip: No Potato Masher Needed!
The recipe calls for a Potato Masher, but once you microwave the bananas as instructed in the recipe, they become very soft, and you can mash them sufficiently with a fork or a whisk.
So, as long as you have a loaf pan, this is still a very beginner-friendly recipe! 😉
