Here’s a classic banana bread recipe that’s moist, flavorful, and easy to make:
Ingredients:
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/3 cup melted butter
3/4 cup sugar (you can adjust to taste)
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
A pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), and butter a loaf pan.
Mix the wet ingredients:
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork. Stir in the melted butter. Add sugar, the beaten egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
Combine dry ingredients: Sprinkle the baking soda and a pinch of salt over the mixture, and mix well. Then, gradually fold in the flour until fully incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool the banana bread in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional Add-ins:
1/2 cup chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans)
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon for extra flavor
