Free food & cooking tip: Butter, sugar, eggs, then flour + soda (step 2 of 5 from "Banana Bread That Tastes Like Banana").

Stir melted butter and sugar into the mash, then eggs and vanilla. Sprinkle flour, salt, baking soda. Fold until you just don't see dry flour. 8–10 strokes after that is enough. Chips or nuts last.

Overmixed banana bread is a rubber brick with sad holes. Under-mixed streaks of flour will bake out more kindly than glue.

You'll need

  • 300 g banana
  • Soda not powder (this isn't a cake with cream of tartar)
  • Barely mixed
