If you can stir ingredients together in a bowl, you can make this quick bread. Watch our video below to see me do it. For the best banana bread, use ripe bananas. There is no point in baking a batch of this bread unless you use ripe bananas. They can even have some soft spots. I don’t think bananas can be too ripe for this recipe. So, if your bananas are still green, wait a day or two.

If you can wait a day or two, throw the bananas into a brown paper bag. If you can place the bag in a warmer area of your home, the process will go even quicker. You can bake bananas in their peel to ripen them for a speedy option. This trick works best when the bananas aren’t entirely green and are already starting to ripen.

Don’t worry if some banana flesh or juices leak out while they bake. The bananas make the bread deliciously moist, sweet, and flavorful. Once you’re ready with your bananas, the rest of the recipe comes together quickly. A gluten-free flour blend also works. Just keep in mind that changing the flour from all-purpose will slightly affect the bread’s texture. Baking soda is our go-to leavener for banana bread. Since posting this recipe, quite a few of you have asked if you can make banana bread without baking soda and baking powder.
