PRO TIP:
The best type of banana to use for this recipe is usually the very, very ripe types. Don’t use unripe or partly ripe bananas. Increase baking time to 45 minutes to 50 minutes if using a single loaf pan.
To make buttermilk, mix 1/2 cup of milk with 11/2 teaspoon white vinegar or lemon. Allow to sit for 10 minutes, milk will curdle. Mix and use.
