The other thing is, that ripe bananas have a much denser thicker consistency than frozen ones do, so 2 will probably work, once mashed for one cups worth of mashed bananas.

I remember my old recipe directed to let the bananas get really ripe, not bad to the point they had turned black, but starting to freckle. The more ripe they are the softer the banana becomes and that makes it easy to mash with a fork.

Mine are always frozen, so they pretty much turn to mush. LOL. but I find, when they are like that, it makes the loaf moist. I usually use at least 3. ;Sometimes, even 4. -----Original Message----- From: Eileen Scrivani via Cookinginthedark [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2018 9:35 AM To: [email protected] Cc: Eileen Scrivani <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [CnD] Banana Bread Soft and Moist: (Tried And True_) Hi Helen, This sounds like a good recipe. Although I’ve made banana bread in the past, its been quite a while, and in the recipe I used to make I seem to recall mashing 2 bananas. I was wondering exactly how many bananas you use in this recipe. Am I correct in guestimating that 1 Cup would be about 1 mashed banana? Thanks.
