Equipment
- 9x5 Metal Loaf Pan
- Parchment Paper
- Mixing Bowl
- Measuring Cups and Spoons
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 1 cup canned pumpkin purée
- 1 cup overripe banana mashed (about 3 small-medium bananas)
- 100 grams granulated white sugar about ½ cup
- 100 grams light brown sugar about ½ cup, packed
- ½ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs large
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 272.5 grams self-rising flour about 2 cups plus 1 ½ tbsp
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees and line a 9x5-inch metal pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl add pumpkin puree, mashed banana, sugars, milk, vegetable oil, eggs and vanilla. Whisk well until everything is combined.
- Add self-rising flour into the bowl and until there are no dry streaks.
- Pour into prepared 9x5 pan and bake for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs from the center.
- Leave the pan for 10-15 minutes on a wire rack before removing the loaf and allowing it to cool fully.
Notes
- To make “2 cups” of our self-rising flour for this recipe, whisk together 250 grams all-purpose flour (about 2 cups), 4 teaspoon baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Using room temperature ingredients in quick breads helps everything mix evenly.
- Be sure to stop stirring the batter once there are no dry steaks to keep the crumb soft.
- Use an oven thermometer for the consistent results.
- Letting the bread cool fully ensures clean slices; but if you can’t wait, let it cool for 20 minutes before slicing.
- Putting parchment paper in your pan first allows for easy removal and cleanup.
