Quick and Easy Banana Bread
When you suddenly feel like baking, you want a simple banana bread without any hassle. The story behind this recipe: As a busy parent, I rarely have time to bake freely. Sometimes I give up because the butter or eggs aren't at room temperature. So, I tried microwaving the butter and using cold eggs, and it turned out just fine! The bread was fluffy, moist, and delicious, so I made it into a recipe.

Grease the pan with oil. Soften the butter in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Preheat the oven to 340°F. The batter comes together quickly.

Mix the softened butter with a whisk until creamy.
- 3
Add the light brown sugar to the butter and mix well.
- 4
Gradually add the beaten egg to the mixture, mixing continuously.
- 5
Sift the dry ingredients marked with ★ into the mixture and gently fold with a spatula until just combined (stop mixing as soon as the flour is no longer visible).
- 6
Mash the bananas and add them to the mixture, stirring gently. The size and texture of the banana pieces are up to you. Do not overmix!
- 7
Pour the batter into the pan and bake at 340°F for 30-40 minutes. When pouring the batter, create a slight indentation in the center.

Once baked, remove from the pan and let cool. For extra moistness, wrap in plastic wrap after it has cooled slightly.

It's delicious even the next day after it has completely cooled. Freshly baked is also delightful. Store wrapped in plastic wrap or a plastic bag.
