Ingredients

  • 4 large ripe bananas or 5 medium size
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened/ room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs room temperature

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F / 176°C. Lightly grease the loaf pan (9" x 5") with softened butter & flour or coat with flour cooking spray. (optional: line the inside of the pan with parchment paper).
  • In a bowl: add flour, salt & baking soda while mixing everything together. (I highly recommend sifting the dry ingredients before adding to the wet ingredients, this will make the batter fluffy and not lumpy).
  • Smash the ripe bananas using a fork or potato masher. Add brown sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla extract and mix.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients together. Mix well. Then transfer the batter to the loaf pan.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick placed in the center of the bread comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and rest the bread in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring the loaf to a baking rack to finish cooling.

Slice, serve & enjoy!
