Butterless Banana Bread Recipe
Start preparing the butterless banana bread by peeling and slicing the bananas.
Mash them with a fork or potato masher until you get a fairly smooth puree.
Add the egg, cinnamon, and brown sugar to the banana puree.
Mix well to get a homogeneous mixture.
Continue mixing while adding the sunflower oil in a thin stream.
Continue until the oil is completely incorporated into the batter.
Also add the previously sifted flour and baking powder to the bowl and mix with a spatula until you get a smooth, lump-free mixture.
Transfer the banana bread batter into a loaf pan (12 inches) greased or lined with baking parchment.
Bake the butterless banana bread in a preheated static oven at 347°F for about 1 hour.
Let it cool completely before slicing.
