How to Make Magnificent Moist Banana Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 3/4 cup granulated sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas until mostly smooth. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 2 large eggs (or equivalent egg substitute), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and mix well.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
