Moist Eggless Banana Poppy Seed Bread

 Moist Banana Poppy Seed Bread (Makes 2 Loaves)

Ingredients:

• 3 overripe bananas
• 2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1 stick softened butter
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 3/4 tsp. baking soda
• 1/2 tsp. sea salt
• 2 tbsp. poppy seeds
• 2 tbsp. melted butter (for brushing)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray two 9-inch loaf pans with cooking spray. Line the bottoms with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas with vanilla extract. Stir in the Greek yogurt, sugar, and softened butter until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding until just combined. Gently fold in the poppy seeds. The batter will be thick.
4. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5. Cool the loaves in the pans for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Brush the tops with melted butter for a richer flavor (optional).
