Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium ripe bananas mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Method
 

  1. Peel the ripe bananas and mash them thoroughly in a bowl using a fork until smooth.
  2. Whisk the melted butter, white sugar, beaten eggs, and vanilla extract into the mashed bananas until fully combined.
  3. Gently fold in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt with a spatula just until no dry flour spots remain.
  4. Pour the smooth batter into a greased and parchment-lined 8x4-inch loaf pan, smoothing the top evenly.
  5. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 55 to 60 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, then cool before slicing.
