A soft, moist, and flavorful banana bread made with ripe bananas and pantry staples. Perfect for breakfast, snack, or dessert.

Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
  3. Stir in the melted butter, then add sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract; mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use overripe bananas for best flavor.
  • Add nuts or chocolate chips for variety.
  • Check for doneness with a toothpick to avoid underbaking.
