- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon fine kosher salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 cups ripe mashed bananas (3-4 bananas)
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2/3 cup dark brown sugar

- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions

- Whisk together all of the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
- Mash the bananas then whisk in the yogurt, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla.
- Pour the wet mixture in with the flour and fold everything together with a rubber spatula. Be careful not to overmix the batter or the bread will be tough.
