- Mix in the melted butter and mashed bananas until combined.
- Sift in the flour and mix just until incorporated.
- Slowly whisk in the lukewarm milk and vanilla extract until smooth (batter will be thin).
- Gently fold in the beaten egg whites in three parts, keeping some fluffy lumps – do not overmix.
