→ Main Ingredients
01 -
4 ripe bananas, mashed or chopped
02 -
1 cup sourdough starter
03 -
2 large eggs, at room temp
04 -
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
05 -
½ teaspoon salt
06 -
½ teaspoon baking soda
07 -
½ cup (113g) softened butter
08 -
½ cup (100g) packed brown sugar
09 -
½ cup (100g) white sugar
10 -
2 cups (250g) plain flour
# Instructions:
01 -
Turn oven to 350°F and lightly coat a 9x5-inch pan with non-stick spray.
02 -
In a medium bowl, toss together flour, salt, and baking soda with a fork. Don’t overthink it.
03 -
With a hand or stand mixer, beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar on medium-high for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
04 -
Throw in the eggs, vanilla, and bananas. Mix just enough so there’s barely any banana chunks left. Scrape the sides if needed.
05 -
Using a spatula or spoon, gently fold in the dry mix and sourdough starter. No need to overdo it.
06 -
Pour mix into your greased pan. Bake it for 55-65 minutes. Poke a toothpick in and if there’s crumbs but no goo, it’s done. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
# Notes:
01 -
Use a fresh and active sourdough starter.
02 -
Room temp ingredients mix together better.
03 -
Be gentle with the flour to avoid tough batter.
