Steps

Method 1 of 3: Making regular banana bread

  1. 1 Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Pour flour into a bowl, add sugar and baking powder. Stir all ingredients until smooth.
  2. 2 Pour liquid ingredients into a microwave-safe bowl. Pour milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract into a microwave-safe bowl. Then you need to peel and chop the ripe banana, then add it to the bowl with the other ingredients. Stir everything together until smooth.
    • To make it easier to get the bread out of the mold, brush the bowl with cooking spray or vegetable oil or butter.
    • You can also use a large microwave-safe mug. Calculate the volume of the crockery assuming that the dough should only take up half of its volume for it to rise.
  3. 3 Add flour mixture to milk mixture. Stir the two mixtures until the lumps are completely dissolved. While doing this, scrub the sides and bottom of the bowl thoroughly.
  4. 4 Cook the bread on high heat for about 2 minutes. Use a toothpick to pierce the center of the bread to check if it's done. If the bread is ready, it will stay clean. Depending on the power of your microwave, the entire process will take about 2 minutes.
  5. 5 Let the bread cool before serving. The bread can be eaten straight out of the bowl or placed on a plate. For the best taste, brush the top with chocolate nut butter.

Method 2 of 3: Making Healthy Banana Bread

  1. 1 Spray the inside of a large microwave-safe mug with cooking spray. This will make it easier to shake the finished bread out of it. If you don't have cooking spray on hand, you can use butter, coconut, or any vegetable oil instead of the spray.
  2. 2 Mix dry ingredients. Toss the coconut flour, ground cinnamon, and baking powder in a mug. Add a pinch of salt and then blend everything together with a fork or small whisk. The spices and salt are now evenly distributed throughout the dough.
    • Coconut flour works great as a substitute for regular flour and is much healthier. This flour contains a lot of fiber, and besides, it makes light and airy baked goods, reminiscent of a biscuit.
    • Instead of other types of flour, you can use 25 grams of almond flour. This will give the bread a light, porous custard texture.
  3. 3 Pour in liquid ingredients. Measure out the milk and pour it into a mug. Add some maple syrup for sweetness. Use honey or agave juice if you don't have maple syrup or just don't like it.
  4. 4 Add the rest of the ingredients. Peel and chop a ripe banana, then add it to the mug. Beat the egg lightly and pour into the mixture. For crispy bread, add chopped walnuts.
  5. 5 Stir the dough again. Take a fork or spoon and stir all the ingredients. Scrub the sides and bottom of the mug thoroughly so that all components are evenly mixed.
  6. 6 Cook the bread at high heat for 3 to 3.5 minutes. Place the mug in the microwave. Bake on high heat for 3 minutes. Cook the bread for 3.5 minutes if almond flour was used in the recipe. The dough will begin to rise as you cook, but will drop quickly as soon as you turn off the microwave.
  7. 7 Let the bread cool before serving. Once the bread has cooled to room temperature, it can be tasted with a fork or spoon. If you wish, you can take it out of the mug, put it on a plate, and only then start your meal.

Method 3 of 3: Making Vegan Gluten Free Banana Bread

  1. 1 Lightly oil the inside of a large microwave-safe mug. You can use vegan cooking spray or coconut oil. This will help to quickly separate the already cooked bread from the sides of the mug.
  2. 2 Add coconut flour and baking powder. Pour coconut flour and baking powder into a mug. Stir the ingredients with a fork or small whisk.
  3. 3 Add brown sugar and milk. It is recommended to use almond or coconut milk. You can also try other vegan milk such as soy milk. Stir the dough again.
  4. 4 Add banana and nut butter. Peel and chop a ripe banana, then add it to the mug. Take your favorite nut butter (almond, peanut, or whatever) and place it in the mug with the ingredients.
    • Are you allergic to nuts? Try soy nut butter or sunflower seed butter.
  5. 5 Mix everything together with a spoon or fork. Continue stirring the mixture until all of the individual ingredients are smooth. Scrub the bottom and sides of the mug thoroughly to mix everything thoroughly.
  6. 6 Bake the bread at high heat for 2.5-3 minutes. The duration of cooking depends on the power of the microwave and the material from which the mug is made. The dough will begin to rise as you cook, but will drop quickly as soon as you turn off the microwave.
  7. 7 Ready.

Tips

  • For the best taste, brush the top of the bread with chocolate nut spread.
  • It is not necessary to grease the inside of the mug, but this will prevent the bread from sticking to the sides of the mug, and it will be easier for you to separate it from the container.
  • Sprinkle chocolate chips on your banana bread before baking. This will give the baked goods a special chocolate flavor.
  • Place a napkin, paper towel, or cardboard rack under the mug to keep your microwave clean.
  • Cooking times differ for different microwave ovens. In the article, we have indicated only an approximate time. Banana bread may take longer or faster to cook depending on the microwave power.
  • The bread can be baked in a small oven-safe ceramic dish at 180 ° C for 10-12 minutes.
