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.
