Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease or line your loaf pan. In a bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth and set aside. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and mix until combined.

Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing just until incorporated. Add the mashed bananas and vanilla extract and gently mix until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool slightly before slicing and enjoying.

Tips for the Best Banana Bread

• The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the bread

• Do not overmix the batter — this keeps the bread tender

• Add chocolate chips, walnuts, or pecans for extra texture
