Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats blend into oat flour
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cup mashed ripe bananas about 3 medium
  • 0.5 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted or use neutral oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cup chopped walnuts optional
  • 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line with a parchment sling.
  • Add rolled oats to a blender or food processor and blend until very fine to make oat flour.
  • In a large bowl, whisk mashed bananas, brown sugar, eggs, Greek yogurt, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Fold in walnuts and chocolate chips if using.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Store the loaf tightly wrapped at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week. For gluten-free, use certified gluten-free oats and replace the all-purpose flour with additional oat flour. Loaf freezes well for up to 2 months; slice before freezing for easy reheating.
