Notes
- To substitute all-purpose flour for 1 and 1/2 cups self-rising flour, use 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour + 1 tablespoon baking powder + 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- If your bananas aren't overripe, stick them on a baking tray in their peel and let them sit in the oven while it's preheating until the peel turns black.
