СКАЧАТЬ THE OVEN Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. MAKE THE BATTER12

      In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer,beat together the butter and sugaron medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. On low speed, add the flour mixture and beatjust until combined. Add the bananas,

      yogurt, and vanilla and beat on low speed just until mixed. BAKE THE BREAD3

      Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50–55 minutes. Check the bread after 30 minutes. If the top is already brown, cover with aluminum foil and return to the oven to finish baking. If the top is not brown at 30 minutes, check again at 40 minutes and cover with foil then, if needed. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes, then turn out the bread onto the rack, turn the bread upright, and let cool completely. Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.

      Greek yogurt keeps this classic quick bread moist, and very ripe banana gives it a natural sweetness. For a little crunch, scatter  cup chopped pecans or walnuts over the top of the batter just before putting the loaf in the oven.
