Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 3-4 very ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon 1/4 teaspoon salt

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker with oil or cooking spray. Line it with parchment paper if desired for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth and thick, like applesauce.
  3. Stir the sugar and salt into the mashed bananas until well combined.
  4. Gradually fold in the flour and baking soda. Mix only until the flour streaks disappear to avoid a tough bread.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
  6. Turn off the slow cooker and let the bread cool in it for 10 minutes with the lid off before transferring to a wire rack.
