Equipment

  • 1 9x5-inch loaf pan
  • 1 Large bowl
  • 1 Whisk or mixer
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Parchment paper
  • 1 Fork or potato masher

Ingredients
  

  • 3 ripe bananas (the riper, the better!)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). To avoid sticking, grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray.
  • Bananas should be mashed with a fork or a potato masher in a big mixing dish until smooth. Leaving a few tiny chunks behind can give your bread more texture.
  • Add melted butter to the mashed bananas and mix to thoroughly blend the wet ingredients. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar after that. Whisk ferociously until the mixture attains a smooth, creamy consistency.
  • Add the dry ingredients by combining the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, chopped nuts (if used), and ground cinnamon (if wanted) in a separate bowl. For equal distribution, combine the dry ingredients.
  • Combining the wet and dry ingredients: Stirring carefully, add the dry ingredients gradually to the wet mixture. Avoid overmixing as it might produce a dense texture.
  • Transfer the batter: Spoon the prepared loaf pan with the banana bread batter, spreading it out evenly.
  • To bake it perfectly, put the pan in a preheated oven and bake it for about 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The bread's top need to be golden brown.
  • Cooling and serving: After baking, take the pan out of the oven, and let the banana bread rest for about 10 minutes inside the pan. After that, move it to a wire rack to finish cooling. Although it is especially great to slice and serve the bread when it is still warm, it tastes equally as well after it has completely cooled.

Notes

Alternatives and advice:
Consider adding 1/2 cup of chocolate chips or dried fruit like raisins or cranberries to the batter for an added flavor boost.
If you'd prefer a nut-free version, leave out the chopped nuts or, for a tropical twist, swap them out with shredded coconut.
Try experimenting with various spices, such as nutmeg or cardamom, to give your banana bread a distinctive flavor.
Because they offer the best flavor and sweetness, ripe bananas should always be used.
For up to three days at room temperature or for a longer shelf life, leftovers can be kept in an airtight container.

With the help of this simple recipe, you can make a tasty dessert that is moist and flavorful that will impress your family and friends.
