Easy Eggless Banana Bread
A one-bowl easy eggless banana bread for tea time snack or as a lunch box treat.
Servings 12
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter (125 gms)
- 1 cup jaggery powder/brown sugar
- 3 bananas
- 4 tbsp curd/yogurt
- 2 cups refined wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 bars dark chocolate (optional)
- 1-2 drops vanilla extract
Instructions
- Start by melting the butter on a low flame until slightly golden.
- Mash the ripe bananas and keep them aside.
- In a mixing bowl add the butter and jaggery powder and give a good mix until well combined. (Before using the jaggery powder ensure that there are no clumps, you can pass it through a sieve to get rid of any clumps of jaggery)
- Now to this mix add the mashed bananas, curd, and vanilla extract. Mix well until well combined.
- Sieve through 2 cups of flour, baking soda, and salt, and add roughly chopped chocolate. Mix well until combined.
- Pour into a lined baking tin and decorate with more chocolate pieces on the top.
- Bake in the oven at 180 degrees C for about 50-55 mins. Make sure to check if cooked through by inserting a toothpick. It should come out clean.
Notes
Substitutions:
You can swap the jaggery powder for castor sugar. I prefer jaggery powder because I like the deep earthy sweetness jaggery lends to the banana bread.
If you want to reduce the refined white flour you can also use 1:1 refined flour to whole wheat flour. Simply make sure to sieve the whole wheat flour 2-3 times before using in the recipe.
