Preparation
- Peel the bananas and chop them into smaller pieces. Mash them in a mixing bowl until smooth.
- Add the vegetable oil (or melted butter/coconut oil), eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix until well combined.
- Stir in the sugar until fully blended.
- Fold in the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C).
- Prepare a loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper and lightly greasing it.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the turbinado sugar on top.
Baking
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated air fryer and bake for 40-45 minutes.
- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
Serving
- Allow the banana bread to cool on a wire rack after baking.
- Once cooled, slice and enjoy with butter or honey, or pair with your favorite hot beverage.
