Step-by-Step Instructions for Oreo Banana Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x4 loaf pan with cooking spray or butter.
  2. Peel and mash 3-4 ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
  3. Add 1/3 cup of vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt to the mashed bananas; mix until combined.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract and 2 large eggs; mix until you achieve a homogenous batter.
  5. Add in 1/2 cup each of granulated sugar and brown sugar; blend until fully combined.
  6. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 cup of chopped Oreos until just mixed.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes; check for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar, 2-3 tablespoons of milk, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract for the glaze.
  11. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread and allow it to set before slicing.

Notes

For optimal sweetness and moisture, use very ripe bananas with brown spots. Avoid overmixing the batter to keep it tender and fluffy. Adjust the glaze to achieve your preferred consistency.
