Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (because patience isn't always our virtue). Grease a 7 x 4-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for an easy release – because who needs extra cleanup?

In a large mixing bowl, let's mash those bananas until they're smooth. Pour in the coconut condensed milk and give it a good whisk to combine. It's like a mini workout, but with a sweet reward at the end!

Now, gently fold in the sifted self-rising flour. This is where the magic happens – turning simple ingredients into something spectacular. Mix until just combined; we don't want to overwork it.

Carefully pour the batter into your prepped pan. Slide it into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. You're looking for that perfect golden top and a skewer that comes out mostly clean – a little clingy crumb is totally okay.

Patience, lovely! Let the banana bread cool in the pan before you take it out. This is the perfect time to plan your toppings – think almond butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or fresh fruit.
