Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until a thick batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the chopped apples evenly throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and use a spatula to smooth the top.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
