Instructions to Make Tahini Banana Bread
Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan with a little oil or line it with parchment paper. This prevents the bread from sticking to the pan.
Mash the Bananas: Peel the bananas and place them in a large mixing bowl. Mash them with a fork or a masher until they are completely smooth. The riper the bananas, the easier they will be to mash and the sweeter your bread will be.
Combine Wet Ingredients: To the mashed bananas, add tahini, olive oil (or melted coconut oil), brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk to mix everything together until well combined. The tahini adds a nutty flavor and richness to the bread.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. This dry mixture will provide the structure for your banana bread.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Use a spatula to fold them together gently. Be careful not to overmix; stop when you no longer see any dry flour. If you’re using nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in at this stage.
Mixing all the ingredients and preparing the dough
Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with the spatula. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 50-60 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. This step is important as it allows the bread to set and makes it easier to slice
Enjoy: Slice your Tahini Banana Bread and enjoy it as is, or with a spread of butter or more tahini. It’s delicious with a cup of coffee or tea!
Tips for Beginners:
Banana Ripeness: The more ripe the bananas, the better. They should have lots of brown spots.
- Measuring Ingredients: Be precise with your measurements, especially for the flour and leavening agents.
- Mixing the Batter: Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the gluten, which can result in a dense bread.
- Oven Variations: Oven temperatures can vary, so start checking your bread around the 45-minute mark.
