Cooking Tip: Make sure your bananas are overripe, with lots of brown spots, for this recipe, otherwise your loaf will be lacking delicious banana flavor and sweetness. Also, please don’t use an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan…it’s too small and the batter won’t cook properly. To accurately determine the size of your pan, always measure inside edge to inside edge, so you don’t include the thickness of the pan in your measurement.
