Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 3 bananas ripe bananas Ensure they are black-spotted and very soft for maximum sweetness and moisture.
  • 2 cups flour All-purpose flour works perfectly, but whole wheat is a healthier twist.
  • 1 cup sugar Try brown sugar for a richer flavor if you prefer.
  • ½ cup butter Melted butter should be slightly cooled; substitute with vegetable oil or applesauce for a lighter loaf.
  • 2 large eggs For an egg-free alternative, use ¼ cup of applesauce per egg.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda This leavening agent helps create a light and airy bread.
  • ½ teaspoon salt Enhances flavor and balances the sweetness.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Optional; adds depth of flavor.

  • Mixing bowl

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth, leaving some small lumps for texture.
  3. Stir in the melted, cooled butter and sugar until well combined.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  5. Gently fold in the flour, baking soda, and salt until just combined.
  6. Pour the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
  7. Bake for 50-55 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
