- If the banana bread is browning too quickly, cover the bread with foil and continue baking until done or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Divide the batter into muffin molds and bake in an oven at 177°C for 20-25 minutes to make easy-to-eat muffins.
Preparation and storage method
Banana nut bread is always better the next day, so doubling the batch is highly recommended. freeze wellWrap tightly in plastic wrap, either whole or by slices, and store in an airtight container when cool.
you can store banana bread 3 days at room temperaturein a week in the refrigerator,and 2 months in the freezer.
Freeze slices separately so you can defrost as much as you need to satisfy your appetite. It can also be reheated in a toaster, microwave, or preheated oven until warm.

Frequently Asked Questions
Two reasons come to mind. First, either too much flour or too little water. Try 1-2 tablespoons less flour and see if that helps. Secondly, over-baked bread tends to dry out. Everyone’s oven is different, not to mention altitude. Start checking doneness 10 minutes before the recipe recommends.
The riper the banana, the better. Bananas that are overripe but not rotten make sweeter, moister banana bread. The skin has many dark spots (or dark brown skin) and is soft to the touch. My favorite has a slightly fermented smell.
The top should be firm to the touch and should come out clean with no signs of wet dough when a toothpick, skewer, or thin knife is stuck into the banana bread.
What to Accompany Banana Nut Bread
The nutty banana bread can be enjoyed on its own, but it’s even better when served with a luscious sauce and elegant frosting underneath.
