Notes
- You are only using half a ripe banana. You can freeze the other half of the banana and make banana bread for one again later or you can throw it into a smoothie! I always keep a stash of frozen ripe bananas in my freezer so I can enjoy this banana bread for one anytime!
- Instead of oil you can use melted butter but I always use oil and love the soft texture it gives the bread.
- You want your batter to be lumpy. Leave small lumps of banana in the batter, it helps make for a soft and tender banana bread. Don't overmix!
