Easy Cake Mix Banana Bread (Printable Version)
Moist banana bread that's super easy with cake mix. Great to use those sad bananas nobody wants.
# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 cup chocolate chips, fruit, or nuts (totally up to you, toss in if you want)
02 -
3-4 medium bananas that are really spotty and soft, mashed up (about 1 ½ cups / 350g)
03 -
3 big eggs
04 -
⅓ cup vegetable oil
05 -
1 (roughly 15-ounce) box of yellow cake mix (or your favorite flavor)
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Once your loaves are out, let them hang out in the pans until they're cool enough to touch. Take them out and let them finish cooling before you slice. Pop the bread into a good container or wrap it well to keep it fresh for a couple days on your counter. Freeze any leftovers if you want them to last longer.
02 -
Put the pans in the oven and bake for about 43 to 48 minutes. They're done when you poke the middle with a toothpick and it comes out dry, with golden, bouncy tops.
03 -
Scoop the thick batter into both pans. Try to get it mostly even, then smooth the tops with a spatula so everything bakes nice and flat.
04 -
Now toss your cake mix, oil, eggs, and those mashed bananas into a big bowl. Mix until you don't see dry spots. If you're throwing in chocolate or nuts, add them now. It'll be a thick batter, so don't worry.
05 -
Get your oven warming up to 350°F. Spray your two loaf pans really well so nothing sticks. You're all set for the batter!
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Super ripe bananas with brown speckles are the best for flavor
02 -
Keep your loaves in the freezer for up to 3 months no problem
03 -
Try white, spice, or even chocolate cake mix – any boxed mix works
