Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease a 9Γ—5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray; line with parchment paper if desired.
  2. In a large bowl, combine mashed bananas, melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture, folding gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with optional chopped walnuts or chocolate chips on top for extra flavor.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with butter or honey.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and flavor.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the bread fluffy.
  • You can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for extra warmth.
  • Storing: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze slices for up to 3 months.
