1 teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

¾ cup brown sugar

½ cup butter

2 large eggs, beaten

2⅓ cups mashed overripe bananas

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat brown sugar and butter until smooth. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended.
  4. Fold banana mixture into flour mixture until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  5. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
  6. Bake about 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Add vanilla extract or fold in walnuts for extra flavor and texture.
  • Mix in chocolate chips or sprinkle cinnamon for a tasty twist.
  • Use overripe bananas with heavily speckled skins for best sweetness and moisture.
