Instructions:

Preheat the Oven of Deliciousness: Begin your culinary journey by preheating your oven to a toasty 350°F. This warm welcome sets the stage for baking perfection.

Mix and Set Aside: In a bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Set this floury goodness aside, ready to join the banana brigade.

Banana Bliss: In a separate bowl, it's time to work your magic with the ripe bananas. Mash them up into a creamy delight and set them aside. These bananas are the stars of the show, after all.

Sugar and Spice: In another bowl, mix together brown sugar, softened unsalted butter, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and a dash of ground cinnamon. Beat these ingredients at low speed until they form a delightful mixture that's as sweet as it is creamy.

The Great Fusion: Now comes the fun part! Add the mashed bananas to the sweet and creamy mixture. Give it all a good mix until it's well combined.

The Floury Embrace: Slowly introduce the flour mixture to the banana-infused mixture, beating at low speed until everything becomes one big happy family. It's like a warm embrace of flavors and textures.

Flaxseed Flourish: Don't forget to add the ground flaxseed! Mix it in to give your Banana Flax Bread an extra boost of nutrition and a delightful nutty flavor.

Into the Pan: Pour your banana-flour mixture into an 8x4 inch loaf pan that's been generously coated with cooking spray. It's the perfect stage for your bread to shine.

Bake to Perfection: Place your creation into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 35 minutes. You'll know it's ready when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out dry and clean.

Savor the Moment: Remove your Banana Flax Bread from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes. This is the perfect time to take in the delightful aroma and get ready to savor each and every slice.

Notes:

• For the best results, use those brown, mushy bananas. If you have some on hand, you can peel and cut ripe bananas into 1-inch pieces and store them in the freezer for future Banana Flax Bread adventures.
• If you're feeling adventurous, consider adding walnuts to your bread for an extra layer of flavor and texture.
• Our Banana Flax Bread is a wonderful blend of delicious and nutritious. It's a wholesome treat that you can feel good about enjoying any time of the day. Happy baking!
