Equipment

8x4-inch loaf pan

Ingredients

2 to 3 medium very ripe bananas peeled (about 1 ¼ to 1 ½ cups mashed)
⅓ cup butter unsalted or salted, melted
½ teaspoon baking soda not baking powder
1 pinch salt
¾ cup sugar ½ cup if less sweet, 1 cup if more sweet
1 large egg beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter an 8x4-inch loaf pan.
In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until completely smooth. Stir the melted butter into the mashed bananas.
Mix in the baking soda and salt. Stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Mix in the flour.
Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and bake for 55 to 65 minutes at 350°F (175°C), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then remove the banana bread from the pan and let cool completely before serving. Slice and serve.

Notes

Wrapped well, the banana bread will keep at room temperature for 4 days. For longer storage, refrigerate the loaf up to 5 days or freeze it.
