Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a silicone loaf pan or line a regular loaf pan with baking paper.
  • Mix together the mashed bananas, figs, eggs, yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla.
  • In another bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix the batter!
  • Pour the batter into the loaf pan and lay the remaining sliced figs over the top.
  • Place the loaf pan into the hot oven to bake for about 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cover the loaf with foil around the 45 minute mark to stop the top from browning too much.
  • Allow the loaf to cool for 15 minutes in the pan before removing it and cooling completely on a wire rack before serving.
  • Store in an airtight container for 3-5 days at room temperature.
