Ingredients

Banana Bread Ingredients
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Before you start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with non-stick spray.

Instructions

Mashed Bananas
  1. In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until they are smooth.
  2. Add the melted butter and stir to combine.
  3. Add the baking soda and salt and mix well.
  4. Stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract.
  5. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough banana bread.
  6. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

That's it! This banana bread is best served warm, but it's also delicious at room temperature.

Tips and Variations

Banana Bread Slices

If you want to take this banana bread recipe to the next level, here are some tips and variations:

  • For extra moisture and flavor, add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (such as walnuts or pecans) or chocolate chips to the batter.
  • If you're feeling adventurous, try adding a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter to give it a warm, cozy flavor.
  • If you don't have ripe bananas, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a brown paper bag and leaving them on the counter for a day or two. The ethylene gas released by the bananas will speed up the ripening process.
