Ingredients
- All-Purpose Flour: 3 cups
- Baking Soda: 1 teaspoon
- Ground Cinnamon: 2 teaspoons
- Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- Mashed Ripe Bananas: 1 cup (about 2-3 bananas)
- Pumpkin Puree: 1 cup
- Granulated Sugar: 1 3/4 cups
- Eggs: 2 large
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, combine the mashed bananas, pumpkin puree, sugar, and eggs. Mix well until fully combined.
- Step 4: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Step 6: Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- To keep your bread moist, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For a warm, comforting treat, microwave a slice for 15-20 seconds, or until heated through.
- A dollop of whipped cream or a dusting of powdered sugar adds a touch of elegance to each slice.
- Don't overmix the batter—a few streaks of flour are okay; this will help keep the bread tender and prevent it from becoming tough.
