Baking Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 5 x 2.5 inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with an electric mixer, combine mashed bananas, yogurt or sour cream, sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla and mix until thoroughly combined.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until combined.
- Stir the dry ingredients into the banana mixture until just blended. Pour batter into the prepared pan. If desired, sprinkle with additional rolled oats.
- Bake in preheated oven for 70-75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before using the parchment paper to lift the bread out onto a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely before slicing.
