Notes

Ingredient Notes
  • Self-rising flour: You can replace self-rising flour with 2 cup (250 g) of all-purpose or wholewheat flour plus 2 teaspoons of baking powder. Oat flour + 2 teaspoons of baking powder work too.
  • Add-ins: For extra flavor and texture, fold in the batter your favorite mix-ins such as chopped walnuts, chocolate chips, raisins or pumpkin seeds. Or add spices such as ground cinnamon, vanilla extract and nutmeg.
Storage Directions
  • To store: Keep the 3 ingredient banana bread in an airtight container or wrapped tightly at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 10-20 seconds if desired.
  • To freeze: Slice and wrap individual portions, then freeze in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Thaw and warm in the microwave or oven before serving.
