Thanks for telling us why we shouldn't do something. Some TH-camrs will just say not to use a stand mixer but will not say why we shouldn't which is frustrating. Thanks for the in depth explanations. It helps a lot! Love your videos, keep them coming. By the way, I made your Kung Pao chicken recipe a few weeks back. It was delish!!👍
@@BrianLagerstrom Loved them but realized if you don't crush them enough it gives a gritty quality to the dish. So I make sure they're crushed pretty fine.
Using a stand mixer or over-mixing risks develop more gluten that will result in no rise and gummy hard crumb unless you use cake flour that has less protein.
I absolutely love and SO appreciate when you explain the WHYs… why the advantages to using “old” bananas, why you use saturated and unsaturated fats and what that does for the results. Thank you for making me not afraid to bake and experiment with your tips and tricks. Love it.
Man, this timing is so perfect. I've received yesterday 10kg of free bananas and was considering banana bread as a way to speed up consumption. Thanks a lot!
Pop some overripe bananas into the freezer, leave them in the skin. You can pull some out next time you want to make it instead of needing to hurry and have them all now....unless, of course, you just want to eat that much banana bread now! You could also bake a batch of several loaves and freeze the loaves (or make some into muffins to freeze).
Banana bread freezes really well too so if you make a load to preserve the bananas you have but aren't going to eat 6 loaves of banana bread then wrap them in parchment and foil or cling and stick them in the freezer. Then you always have banana bread for when you want it. If you make it into muffins instead of a loaf they'll defrost even quicker too 😊
I’ve made hundreds of loaves of banana bread for a coffee shop. The best banana source I’ve found is very very ripe bananas peeled and frozen. Microwave for 2 minutes when needed for a very broken down banana with a syrupy banana juice. The best!!
Brian- I just wanted to say thank you for this recipe. I have my own home bakery business, and someone ordered banana bread which wasn't on my current menu, so my first thought was to see if you had a recipe for it. I knew I could trust you to make something amazing. I had a bit of extra batter and made a muffin to try, and it is the best banana bread I have ever had. All of your recipes stand out to me, and they all are absolutely amazing. I am only 17, so I know I have a long way to go. You inspire me so much and I love all your videos :)
Baking atleast is super easy, although it is very much chemistry so at first its best to just strictly follow recipies until you know enough to tweak them or make your own. Cooking on the other hand can simply be measured with your heart and is relatively hard to mess up in a way that renders your food inedible. (Burning and over seasoning/spicing/salting are the big ones)
What I loved about this video was that you included the explanations about everything for example the fact that using a mixer and incorporating air into the eggs can collapse the rise in the banana bread. Thank you so much.
Unreal recipe. The knowledge that we can all (I think) tell, comes from repetition and experience/experimentation is so valuable. From this channel I get that everything is personal taste to a degree but trust that the recipes provided are a good ‘jumping off’ point. Thank you so much.
Thank you for explaining the proper leavening/moisture issue in breads made with aged bananas. It addresses all the recent "hits and misses" we've experienced. I so appreciate you modifying the recipe for a smaller tin. Your recipes never miss and, I can't wait to try this one too! I hope you guys had a blast on vacation and, I can't wait to hear all about it!
Have made this bread a couple of times - delicious. Quantities for the 1lb version are a bit off though, my bread spilled over side of tin during cooking. This amounts worked for me: 4 bananas 2 large eggs 80g dark brown sugar 45g black treacle 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 90g sour cream 2 tbsp olive oil 75g butter 280g flour 1-1/4 tsp salt 2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
Wonderful recipe❣️ I made the smaller version (9x3 loaf pan) last evening. It turned out perfectly after 70 minutes. I took it out after 60 minutes, checked with a skewer. It was slightly wet. Put it back for 10 more minutes. Perfect 👍🏼 Going to try your Baguette recipe one of these days. Love and best wishes from Canada 🇨🇦
another banana (lots of fruit, actually) ripening tip: if you happen to have an apple handy, putting the bananas in a semi-permeable bag with the apple for a day or so will expedite the ripening process - some fruit release gas they ripen, and that gas can be trapped and used to help along other fruit! A brown banana or apple is all that stands between todays yet ripened avocado and tomorrows perfect guac!
👍🏻 Thanks for all the tips and the reasons why they work. In South Africa 🇿🇦, classic banana bread has walnuts, cinnamon, and cake mix (which is seedless raisins, sultanas, currants, and candied orange peel). All of which i love, but i do like the idea of chocolate chip inclusions .. so I'm going to have to try that out for sure. Thanks!
Just made the Classic Version today. I tried a lot of recipes before, but Ladies and Gentlemen, this one is f**** awesome. Very intense banana flavor, a subtle sweetness also from the brown sugar and a very mellow one from the molasses. It's a dream. Thank you, Brian, you are doing an awesome job.
I love making banana bread. Looking forward to trying your recipe. Thanks for putting grams into the recipe.I buy bananas every week to take to mom in LTC. If the banana turns the perfect brown it goes in the freezer. Mom's second favorite snack.
Thank you for the recipes! I make banana bread quite regularly as my daughter tends to eat half a banana almost every day... The other half ends up in a freezer bag, waiting to be converted into banana bread, banana pancakes or a banana smoothie. I will try you recipe soon!
Oh my God! Finally! The receipe I've been looking for. Others make the Banana bread like cakes. My aunt and cousin use to make it like this and it's so amazing and delicious. I've been looking for this recipe for so long. Thank you so much.
Brian- I had 5 very ripe banana's and the 1.5 baking pan you recommended wasn't due to come in until today. So last night I decided to make the classic using a 1b pan. It was kind of a late night decision and baking was done in a messy kitchen with a bit of chaos. Unfortunately I forget to add the (already measured out) vanilla. But no worries- your banana bread was AMAZING! My husband loved it! I had mine with butter and fig jam- it's a keeper! I was unsure about the olive oil because I've never baked a banana bread with olive oil before but it's just extra moist and delicious! Thank you from both of us!
Thank you for this amazing recipe....I just threw my old one into the garbage.......I will definitely make this in the next few days.... our week old bananas are ready to go.... so much less sugar ,less sour cream and done all by hand.....that’s one for the favourites list... cheers....
Newcomer/latecomer to your channel Brian but I made your 'everything' banana bread this week and oh my goodness it is absolutely ELITE! Best banana bread I've ever had. Thanks so much for sharing your recipes, I'm super psyched to work my way through so many of them!🥳
Hey Bri! I always throw my bananas into the freezer when they start to blacken. When I have enough, I bake! Also I throw my folded butter wrappers into the freezer then pull one out to grease my pans. It’s a clean neat way to do it. ♥️ your videos.
Hello, I'm here from the future. I ended up with two overripe bananas at the end of the week and decided to use them for this recipe. I scaled the recipe down to match the weight of the bananas I had and instead of a loaf pan, I put the batter in a 1/4 sheet pan and instead of an oven I used an airfryer at 300F, bottom rack, and baked it for about 40 minutes. This is the best banana bread recipe I've ever encountered. Like holy shit, I kid you not, just the tenderness of the texture alone is insane.
Just made your recipe yesterday & my family absolutely loved it - they said it was the best homemade banana bread they've tasted before! The only downside is there isn't much left for me 😂 Thanks for the recipe, Bri
We like ours with walnuts, and topped with cream cheese. Bri, you always research and present in a very professional manner. Not to mention that you are as entertaining as hell.
This is my favorite recipe now after a long search for a good banana bread. I like this banana bread because it's moist (oil with butter definitely helps with that) and not overly sweet (although I increased the amount of sugar the second time I baked it). In my opinion it has the right texture and a very good flavor. Also, this recipe fixed my problem of undercooked/not well risen bottom of the banana bread. Than you!
Both versions are delicious! It works well with half the sugar - reduce the salt if you go this route. I tried both versions as muffins - added the seed/nut/chocolate mix after making half the batter as banana muffins.
For those like me that like a more pronounced banana flavor, you have to prepare a day in advance. Peel the bananas and toss in lemon juice and refrigerate. Take the peels, weigh them and combine with an equal weight in granulated sugar and leave on counter overnight. The syrup that is produced has a very intense banana flavor and can be added to the wet ingredients.
First time trying this recipe. My baking pan must not be 1 lb. I divided the pared down version between two of my loaf pans. They are still in the oven but smell fantastic. Thanks for the recipe.❤
I've really been enjoying your videos Brian. I came here via Adam and I love how you construct your videos. Keep up the great work. Also, I like pure banana bread with no nuts.
Baked this today, with hazelnuts and choc chunks as mixins; it tasted great, with great lift and no collapse after taking out of the oven! I made the larger amount of batter and had leftover so made pancakes of sorts by just frying them up, which were also real good
After the first day, i wrap it up and put it in the fridge. After that, i just cut a slice and blitz it in the microwave for 20 second which also makes the chocolate chips melt a but. It lasts a good week. This recipe is full proof!
Great recipe! I had it today and it was very lovely. The only thing I’m going to change in the next batch is to increase the amount of vanilla. It’s not a banana-vanilla bread but 5g/5ml for a 1500g yield of an otherwise richly flavored batter seems like a throw away amount that wouldn’t be missed if it wasn’t there at all.
Thank you for the Classic banana bread recipe, we are a classic style house..... and yes now we have to serve it Brian style with butter and sea slat flakes....:)... . Love you videos, and this is my 4th time making the bread since we saw it and honestly, perfect every time.... Thank you , huge fans ( my husband watches your videos and I have to come up with the end product....) .
In my opinion, the best banana breads are the ones that are light, cakey and that have a sticky top like madeira cake. My ultimate banana bread recipe is Mary Berry's banana loaf. I am interested in trying your recipe, though, so will bookmark this for when the cooler months return as it is summer here in Australia right now.
Hey Bri! We watch all your videos! We were watching the banana bread video today, and my 7-year-old daughter asked if you could make gumbo. She asked me to comment that here, so there it is! We live in New Orleans and make GREAT gumbo on the reg if you have any questions.
been following one recipe all this time and I have to say that intro hit home on the first bite. I went with walnut, desiccated coconut and milk + dark chocolate combo, and it was delicious!
My Mom taught us to that banana bread was a great way to use up old bananas and that they had a more concentrated banana flavor. I'm not familiar with baking the fresher bananas, but we used to freeze peeled bananas and then let the thaw to get the "over ripe" banana effect, similar to your refrigerator method.
This looks awesome. I have a great family recipe that’s always a hit with friends but it relies on simpler flavors in white sugar and vegetable oil. I may have to betray the family and try this recipe. And you’re right about the walnuts, leave those for zucchini bread!
Bri, Thank you for these recipes. I made the basic/classic banana bread but added some freshly toasted walnuts. Oh yeah, we used old brown bananas for the natural enhanced sugar flavor. It was truly the best that we have ever had. Just the smell in the house was dope. My wife and I love your videos and have tried a bunch.
Lol My husband was wondering why the gas usage was higher than the year before. WELL...I think that's when I started watching and subbed to your channel. The countless loaves of Dutch oven bread, Cinnamon raisin bread, and every State in the Union's pizza dough. (Jersey, St. Louis, NY, et al.) I kept telling him that I had to get the steel hot. LOL My go to is Cooks Illustrated Banana Bread. Yours looks better. I'll give it a shot.
Brown sugar is just white sugar with molasses added back (check Adam Ragusea’s video on it for more details.) You could just add white sugar and up the amount of molasses. Since watching Adam’s video I never buy brown sugar anymore. It would always turn into a brick in my pantry and it always seemed like I had the wrong shade on hand. Now I just mix it up as I need it.
Think I will give the basic recipe a try, it's pretty close to what I do (which is a variation of a recipe of Donna Hay). Mine also combines melted butter and oil, but I don't use the sour cream. In terms of fillings my personal favourites are a combination of nuts and/or some raisins that I've soaked in spirits like Brandy or Whiskey. If I do the bread as a hostess gift for a party, I add chocolate so that it is more like a dessert than a tea-time/coffee break snack.
My new go to B-bread recipe. I'm suscribed to ATK, too. Add, to be fair, they have a lot of good stuff. But, i'm trying more and more of your stuff. This b-bread is killer, kids like it, easy to make. Thank you.
others have mentioned freezing bananas, but I just freeze the last one or two from a bunch I don't eat. I use them in smoothies or banana bread (just defrost, fridge 24h)
I feel almost stubborn about trying this recipe, cos I have a great banana bread recipe 😁 (had people request me make it specially for them and it's helped me win over colleagues. Someone actually stole a banana bread I made once, drama!) I might do a banana-bread-off, where I make both cos I'm super curious and wanna compare! (The recipe I use isn't one I invented or anything, just from a book) Also 2 things: - really appreciate the tips about softening bananas, especially since my bfs mum INSISTS putting them in the fridge stops them going soft! - for providing a recipe for a smaller batch, much appreciated
Love love your videos. I make banana bread quite often. Our HEB most of the time has a bag of ripe bananas for a very good price. Day after I bake bread we put butter on it and put it on a comal to brown it. Soooo good, just FYI.
Great video as always Bri!!! I have my own recipe but it doesn't have molasses or sour cream, so I can't wait to try yours... ...and we're split in my house too!!! Me and two of my kids are Team Chocolate Chip, and my wife and two other kids are Team No Chocolate Chip
I always put my fully ripened bananas in a zip lock & throw in the freezer . When I wanna make banana bread or banana pancakes; I just take out of freezer & thaw out & they are perfect
Just put it in the oven! Can't wait to see how it tastes. Had the halve the recipe though since I only had two bananas lol. Just recently found your channel and you genuinely have some of the best content for cooking man! Can't wait to try your other recipes!!
Bananas could be frozen, and after that they became brown also. To make darker bread it's pretty easy to use small butch of burned sugar, with vanilla extract it make bread pretty interesting. I tested it on my Ukrainian honey bread recipe with some walnuts. Bryan, will we get yeast &sourdough measurements on your recipes?
It’s ironic you were working on this recipe bc I was doing the same this past week/week and half! We prefer the nuts and chocolate version. Hubby always wants more “chunks of banana” 😒 so I’m working on that. I also sub out some flour for vanilla custard protein powder 🤤. We prefer them as muffins over the loaf 😁
How do you like your banana bread? We're split in my house. Do you go for the classic or loaded with nuts/chocolate?
Both rock, but loaded is the winner in my book!
Easily classic, but I'd never turn down either
Classic with butter!
Raisins and possibly walnuts if not plain. Usually plain with butter.

@@BrianLagerstrom Loved them but realized if you don't crush them enough it gives a gritty quality to the dish. So I make sure they're crushed pretty fine.
Using a stand mixer or over-mixing risks develop more gluten that will result in no rise and gummy hard crumb unless you use cake flour that has less protein.
Brian it's 2AM here in Australia, and now I want banana bread. Thanks a lot mate, thanks a lot.
Cheers! Thanks for watching
Hey, you in Brisbane? My fiancé loves to let bananas rot in our crisper. Head on over mate hahaha
I absolutely love and SO appreciate when you explain the WHYs… why the advantages to using “old” bananas, why you use saturated and unsaturated fats and what that does for the results. Thank you for making me not afraid to bake and experiment with your tips and tricks. Love it.
Man, this timing is so perfect. I've received yesterday 10kg of free bananas and was considering banana bread as a way to speed up consumption. Thanks a lot!
Nice I hope you try it. Thank you for watching
Pop some overripe bananas into the freezer, leave them in the skin. You can pull some out next time you want to make it instead of needing to hurry and have them all now....unless, of course, you just want to eat that much banana bread now! You could also bake a batch of several loaves and freeze the loaves (or make some into muffins to freeze).
Banana bread freezes really well too so if you make a load to preserve the bananas you have but aren't going to eat 6 loaves of banana bread then wrap them in parchment and foil or cling and stick them in the freezer. Then you always have banana bread for when you want it. If you make it into muffins instead of a loaf they'll defrost even quicker too 😊
I’ve made hundreds of loaves of banana bread for a coffee shop. The best banana source I’ve found is very very ripe bananas peeled and frozen. Microwave for 2 minutes when needed for a very broken down banana with a syrupy banana juice. The best!!

Congrats on 600k! Falls coming and banana bread is the perfect treat.
I’ve never been into cooking or baking and watching your videos has really grown my confidence! I’m so going to try this later!
Best of luck. Let me know on IG how it goes
Baking atleast is super easy, although it is very much chemistry so at first its best to just strictly follow recipies until you know enough to tweak them or make your own.
Cooking on the other hand can simply be measured with your heart and is relatively hard to mess up in a way that renders your food inedible. (Burning and over seasoning/spicing/salting are the big ones)
What I loved about this video was that you included the explanations about everything for example the fact that using a mixer and incorporating air into the eggs can collapse the rise in the banana bread. Thank you so much.
Unreal recipe. The knowledge that we can all (I think) tell, comes from repetition and experience/experimentation is so valuable. From this channel I get that everything is personal taste to a degree but trust that the recipes provided are a good ‘jumping off’ point. Thank you so much.

When I was just looking for a bread, my favorite chef published this🤗 THANKS BRIAN 👌
I followed the recipe exactly and added chocolate chips. It was the best banana bread I have ever had.
Have made this bread a couple of times - delicious. Quantities for the 1lb version are a bit off though, my bread spilled over side of tin during cooking.
This amounts worked for me:
4 bananas
2 large eggs
80g dark brown sugar
45g black treacle
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
90g sour cream
2 tbsp olive oil
75g butter
280g flour
1-1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
I like both versions. This recipe is just perfect. I made the bread last weekend, and the whole family loved it. Thank you so much for your recipe.
I love a classic style of banana bread! Growing up my mom would make it often and put it in my lunches for school as a treat
Wonderful recipe❣️
I made the smaller version (9x3 loaf pan) last evening.
It turned out perfectly after 70 minutes. I took it out after 60 minutes, checked with a skewer. It was slightly wet.
Put it back for 10 more minutes.
Perfect 👍🏼
Going to try your Baguette recipe one of these days.

Me and my two sons will definitely try this recipe!! 🛹😎

Great recipe! I had it today and it was very lovely. The only thing I’m going to change in the next batch is to increase the amount of vanilla. It’s not a banana-vanilla bread but 5g/5ml for a 1500g yield of an otherwise richly flavored batter seems like a throw away amount that wouldn’t be missed if it wasn’t there at all.
What a wonderful recipe❣️

This looks awesome. I have a great family recipe that’s always a hit with friends but it relies on simpler flavors in white sugar and vegetable oil. I may have to betray the family and try this recipe. And you’re right about the walnuts, leave those for zucchini bread!
Thank you for recipes, I make it is was so good.🙏😊😊❤️
Just made it, couldn’t wait for it to cool. Holy moly my man. Thank you
Bri, Thank you for these recipes. I made the basic/classic banana bread but added some freshly toasted walnuts. Oh yeah, we used old brown bananas for the natural enhanced sugar flavor. It was truly the best that we have ever had. Just the smell in the house was dope. My wife and I love your videos and have tried a bunch.
Lol My husband was wondering why the gas usage was higher than the year before. WELL...I think that's when I started watching and subbed to your channel. The countless loaves of Dutch oven bread, Cinnamon raisin bread, and every State in the Union's pizza dough. (Jersey, St. Louis, NY, et al.) I kept telling him that I had to get the steel hot. LOL My go to is Cooks Illustrated Banana Bread. Yours looks better. I'll give it a shot.
We used to eat Banana Bread growing up and also Zucchini bread which i actually prefer but both when done right.... so good
Brown sugar is just white sugar with molasses added back (check Adam Ragusea’s video on it for more details.) You could just add white sugar and up the amount of molasses.
Since watching Adam’s video I never buy brown sugar anymore. It would always turn into a brick in my pantry and it always seemed like I had the wrong shade on hand. Now I just mix it up as I need it.
i was just about to make a comment about the same thing before i saw yours.
Thank you for adding butter
Think I will give the basic recipe a try, it's pretty close to what I do (which is a variation of a recipe of Donna Hay). Mine also combines melted butter and oil, but I don't use the sour cream.
In terms of fillings my personal favourites are a combination of nuts and/or some raisins that I've soaked in spirits like Brandy or Whiskey. If I do the bread as a hostess gift for a party, I add chocolate so that it is more like a dessert than a tea-time/coffee break snack.
My new go to B-bread recipe. I'm suscribed to ATK, too. Add, to be fair, they have a lot of good stuff. But, i'm trying more and more of your stuff. This b-bread is killer, kids like it, easy to make. Thank you.
others have mentioned freezing bananas, but I just freeze the last one or two from a bunch I don't eat. I use them in smoothies or banana bread (just defrost, fridge 24h)
I feel almost stubborn about trying this recipe, cos I have a great banana bread recipe 😁 (had people request me make it specially for them and it's helped me win over colleagues. Someone actually stole a banana bread I made once, drama!)
I might do a banana-bread-off, where I make both cos I'm super curious and wanna compare!
(The recipe I use isn't one I invented or anything, just from a book)
Also 2 things:
- really appreciate the tips about softening bananas, especially since my bfs mum INSISTS putting them in the fridge stops them going soft!
- for providing a recipe for a smaller batch, much appreciated
I was having the same thoughts myself, I love my recipe but would like to try this to compare.
Tried the first recipe, turned out great! Thanks for sharing
Love love your videos. I make banana bread quite often. Our HEB most of the time has a bag of ripe bananas for a very good price. Day after I bake bread we put butter on it and put it on a comal to brown it. Soooo good, just FYI.
an actually good and underrated recipe! keep it up
Thanks for going the extra mile and giving a smaller loaf recipe!
I also tried the reduced recipe variation for the smaller loaf tin but it was still way too much batter! (See my comment above) Did yours overflow??
So many naughty mix-ins... Yes please!!
I get banana bread from some Amish folks in Kutztown Pa, and I always save a few slices to stale out and make French toast with it.
Great video as always Bri!!! I have my own recipe but it doesn't have molasses or sour cream, so I can't wait to try yours...
...and we're split in my house too!!! Me and two of my kids are Team Chocolate Chip, and my wife and two other kids are Team No Chocolate Chip
I support Team Chocolate Chip
Banana bread with a smear of cream cheese and sliced strawberries is a favorite Breakfast.
I love my slice of fresh banana bread toasted with slather of peanut butter.
my fav food youtuber hands down
Praying you tackle fruit crisps soon... the perfect apple crisp? Peach, blueberry? Love your food...
I always put my fully ripened bananas in a zip lock & throw in the freezer . When I wanna make banana bread or banana pancakes; I just take out of freezer & thaw out & they are perfect
Yeah this is great Move
The loaded w/ nuts&seeds version works really well with 450g of shredded zucchini (drained).
Beautiful and well explained video.
Molasses must be a great flavor.
Thanks.
Just put it in the oven! Can't wait to see how it tastes. Had the halve the recipe though since I only had two bananas lol. Just recently found your channel and you genuinely have some of the best content for cooking man! Can't wait to try your other recipes!!
Oh yum I will definitely be making that recipe. Thank you
Bananas could be frozen, and after that they became brown also. To make darker bread it's pretty easy to use small butch of burned sugar, with vanilla extract it make bread pretty interesting. I tested it on my Ukrainian honey bread recipe with some walnuts.
Bryan, will we get yeast &sourdough measurements on your recipes?
It’s ironic you were working on this recipe bc I was doing the same this past week/week and half! We prefer the nuts and chocolate version. Hubby always wants more “chunks of banana” 😒 so I’m working on that. I also sub out some flour for vanilla custard protein powder 🤤. We prefer them as muffins over the loaf 😁
Just put in less chocolate to let the banana shine.
Awesome! and so yummy! Have a great day!
Much love all! Delish!
I want to make this with the addition of peanut butter and chunks of bacon. The idea sounds like the king of banana bread.
Thank you Brian, you read my mind once again :) Question : Substituing AP flour for Whole Wheat AP flour - any incidence on the result?
Oh it would make it more healthy with the bran
