Moist Yogurt Banana Bread

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.

In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth. Stir in the yogurt, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.

In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter. If you are using nuts, fold them in at this stage.

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

Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
