Ingredients
- Preheat the oven to 350°F 175°C. Grease or line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Place the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl and mash them until mostly smooth leaving a few small lumps.
- Add the yellow cake mix and eggs to the mashed bananas. Stir gently until everything is fully combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Bake for 45–55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for the best flavor.
- Mix only until combined to keep the bread soft and tender.
- If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover it with foil during the last 10–15 minutes of baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Add chocolate chips, chopped walnuts, or cinnamon for extra flavor if desired.
