How to Store Banana Bread Loaf So It Stays Fresh?

  • If consume within the next three days, store the bread in airtight container or bag at room temperature. First make sure to cool the bread completely after baked. Then sandwich the loaf of bread between two paper towels in the container. The paper towel will absorb excess moisture from the bread during the next few days. Then firmly seal the lid of the airtight container or bag. If kept refrigerated, can keep up to six days.
  • If plan to keep longer, we can freeze the entire bread loaf or freeze the banana bread in slices. When stored properly, frozen banana bread can keep up to two months. As usual, make sure the bread is cooled completely before storing. Then wrap the bread tightly in plastic wrap. Then wrap again in aluminium foil or place in an airtight freezer bag before storing in the freezer. To thaw the bread, remove from the freezer and allow it to come to room temperature, covered on the counter.

Important Tips When Baking This Banana Bread

  • To key to make super moist banana bread is to use only very ripe, in fact overripe bananas. The best bananas are those that are soft and shows small brown & black spots on the yellow exterior of the banana. The riper the bananas, the more moist is the bread and the more banana flavour it will have. Unripe bananas have more starch and less sugar than ripe bananas, hence your banana bread will be bland and lack in banana flavour.
  • Use only 3 medium size bananas for this recipe which is about 300g. Do not add too much bananas as it can make the mixture too wet and the banana bread could come out undercooked.
  • When adding ingredients into the bread pan, always follow the order of the ingredients listed so that liquid ingredients are placed in the bread pan first and the dry ingredients second. (Or follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific bread machine). The bread pan should be removed from the bread machine before you start to add any ingredients. This helps to avoid spilling any ingredient inside the bread machine.
  • Always allow the banana bread to cool completely before slicing. This may take up to 2 hours. Otherwise, the banana bread will break (crumble) easily when cut.
  • Also refer to our other recipe on Bread Machine Basic White Bread for more tips on basic bread making and how to use the bread machine.

Notes

  • Always use overripe bananas. Choose those soft, overripe bananas with peels that are covered in brown spots because they’re sweet and have a strong banana flavour.
  • You can use frozen bananas. Thaw them at room temperature and drain off any excess liquid before mixing with the other ingredients.
  • To keep the bread moist and fresh, always allow it to cool completely after baking. Then wrap tightly in a layer of plastic wrap and store in a freezer zip-top bag or a large plastic container with a tight fitting lid. 
  • If keep at room temperature, this banana bread loaf will last for up to 3 days. If refrigerate, it is good for up to 6 days.  Alternately, you can wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. You can also freeze banana bread in slices because the slices thaw much quicker. To consume, just thaw to room temperature and or toast before consuming.
