It is a very weird time for everyone. Currently, I am in the middle of finals, which is stressful enough without everything else going on. To serve as a stress reliever, and an excuse to snack, I decided to make banana bread! To my surprise, I managed to successfully bake something actually tasty, so I am sharing my recipe to make banana bread with anyone else who may need it right now (and I would be very surprised if you said you didn't):
Step #1: Mash bananas.
Before beginning, preheat your oven to 350°F. I used a large bowl and mashed four overripe bananas.
Step #2: Add butter.
Make sure to use melted butter, and add 1/3 of a cup.
Step #3: Mix in sugar, an egg, and vanilla.
1 egg, 1 cup white granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
Step #4: Mix in baking soda and salt.
1 teaspoon baking soda and a pinch of salt.
Step #5: Now add flour.
Use 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, and add it in gradually.
Step #6: Pour mixture into a pan.
Make sure to butter the pan first!
Step #7: Bake.
For 1 hour (or until ready)!
Step #8: Enjoy!
Remember to let it cool!
Now you can tell everyone that you've mastered a new skill in quarantine, besides making TikToks, doing puzzles, and sleeping. If you're stuck at home you might as well learn how to bake!
