How to choose ripe and delicious bananas
- You should choose a bunch of bananas that are not uniformly colored (with both yellow and green fruits) and have dark or deep pink spots.
- Avoid selecting fruits that are uniformly ripe with a deep yellow skin.
- Naturally ripened bananas will have a yellow stem and body. If the stem is green but the fruit is uniformly yellow, it is definitely chemically treated.
- Tree-ripened bananas will have a fragrant smell and a natural sweet taste, soft all over. In contrast, chemically treated bananas will feel a bit chalky, hard, and have astringent and sour tastes.
Tips for successfully making banana yogurt bread
- Using whole wheat flour will contain more fiber and is better than regular white flour.
- You can substitute whole wheat flour with an equivalent amount of oat flour.
- Since bananas and honey are sweet, you don’t need to use sugar, which is healthier.
- Using Greek yogurt will make the bread more delicious.
- The baking time also depends on the size of the mold you use. Therefore, you should check the bread every 15 minutes.
- If the bread is not cooked but the crust is golden, you need to reduce the air fryer temperature to 160 degrees and continue baking. Or you can cover the mold with a layer of aluminum foil and bake until the bread is done.
