1

In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, whisking to combine thoroughly.

2

In a medium bowl, combine banana, dark brown sugar, egg, applesauce, milk, oil, and vanilla, stirring well to combine.

Make a well in the flour mixture and add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, stirring just until moist.
