Tips for making
Use really ripe bananas for making this bread.
Mash the bananas well before adding to the mixture
Preheat oven before baking bread
Check your bread to see if it's baked through at 55 minutes. Bake for an additional 5-10 minutes if needed.
Allow bread to fully cool before slicing. Warm bread tends to fall apart easily.
Ingredient substitutions
Old Fashioned Oats - You can use one-minute or quick oats instead
Canola Oil - Use vegetable oil or other light tasting oil
