How to make it

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a small microwave-safe dish or ramekin.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine mashed banana, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  3. Add the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to the banana mixture. Stir until just combined. Don't overmix.
  4. If desired, fold in optional add-ins such as chopped nuts, dark chocolate chips, or dried fruits.
  5. Pour the batter into the greased dish or ramekin.
  6. Microwave on medium-high for about 2-3 minutes or until the banana bread is cooked through and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the banana bread to cool slightly before enjoying.
  8. Slice and serve the banana bread warm.
