Instruments You’ll Want

Recipe Ideas

• The bananas matter: The riper the banana, the sweeter. They’re additionally simpler to mash. One factor we’ve discovered is that should you don’t mash your bananas sufficient, they may sink to the underside, so simply be sure to get in there and mash them nicely.
• The pan you employ issues, too! There isn’t a unsuitable reply, however should you use a steel loaf pan, it distributes the warmth extra evenly, the place there may be extra of an opportunity of uneven cooking in a ceramic pan.
• Add the coconut oil final: Just be sure you add the coconut oil final in order that it doesn’t agency up when it mixes with the opposite chilly, moist components.
• Don’t over prepare dinner: Be sure that to regulate the middle of your loaf. Should you overcook your bread, it would find yourself robust and crumbly.
