Notes
- How to know the bread is done. Use a toothpick to check the center of the bread. Once a toothpick comes out clean, the bread is done!
- Get perfect slices. Allow the bread to cool for an hour before slicing. This will prevent the slices from falling apart.
- Storage. Keep leftover bread at room temperature for up to 1-2 days.
- Freeze. Banana bread slices can be kept in the freezer. Make sure to wrap each slice securely, as it lasts up to 3 months. To thaw, simply place the slices in the refrigerator overnight or let them sit on the counter until they reach room temperature.
