How to store banana bread?

Banana bread can be tightly wrapped in saran wrap or placed in an airtight container and stored at room temperature in a cool dry place for 3-5 days.

Is banana bread healthy?

There are healthy banana bread recipes out there but traditional banana bread made with regular all-purpose flour, sugar, and butter or oil is not considered by healthy by nutrition experts.

Can you freeze banana bread?

Yes, banana bread freezes really well. Tightly double wrap in saran wrap and then a layer of aluminum foil, or instead of using foil, place the wrapped loaf in a large freezer ziplock bag. Label and date and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

How long does banana bread last?

Depending on the temperature of your house, banana bread can last up to 3-5 days if stored in a cool and dry place. Because banana bread is quite moist, if your house is warm, I would say only up to 3 days. During the winter months when most homes are cooler, I would say up to 5 days.

How ripe should bananas be for banana bread?

The more brown the better. As bananas ripen, more of the starch gets converted into sugar and there is more depth in flavor. I prefer my bananas more brown than yellow for baking.
