How To Make Banana Bread

4. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture. Then, mix it together

5. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and baked it in a preheated oven of 350 degrees F for about an hour. You will know the bread is perfectly cooked when you insert a toothpick into the center of the bread, and it comes out clean.

6. Make sure you let the bread sit in the pan for about 10 minutes before turning it out. Otherwise, it will not be coming in one piece.

The banana bread will be moist because of the butter, eggs, and brown sugar. The brown sugar adds more moisture rather than the white sugar.

If you want to freeze it, wrap the cooled loaf tightly in one layer of storage wrap, then one layer of aluminum foil.
