Make this Greek Yogurt Banana Bread for a tender, moist loaf perfect for breakfast or a snack. Using Greek yogurt adds protein and reduces fat, creating a healthier twist on the classic.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 very ripe large bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, Greek yogurt, melted butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix with a spatula until you see no streaks of flour remaining. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  6. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Using very ripe, spotty bananas provides the best natural sweetness and moisture for this recipe.
  • You can substitute brown sugar for granulated sugar for a deeper molasses flavor.
  • For a protein packed loaf, consider adding 1/4 cup of vanilla protein powder with the dry ingredients.
  • This bread keeps well stored tightly wrapped at room temperature for up to three days.
