Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a loaf pan by greasing it lightly.
Mash 2 ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Mix in 1 cup of pumpkin puree along with ½ cup of granulated sugar and ½ cup of brown sugar. Stir well until combined.
Add in 2 eggs and ⅓ cup of melted butter, blending thoroughly.
Sift together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt in a separate bowl.
Combine the wet and dry mixtures gently until just incorporated; be careful not to overmix.
Fold in any optional add-ins like chopped walnuts or chocolate chips if desired.
Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the bread in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a vegan option, substitute eggs with flax eggs.
This recipe can also accommodate half whole wheat flour for added nutrition.
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
