2 eggs
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 bananas, mashed

Directions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
2 Mix whole wheat flour, brown sugar, flaxseed meal, oats, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
3 Combine eggs, butter, 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon butter milk, and vanilla extract in another bowl. Stir in flour mixture. Add bananas; mix until batter is well-combined. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.
