Ingredients: 

  • 1 Cup of Granulated Sugar

  • 2 Cups of All Purporse Flour

  • 3 Large Eggs

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) Butter

  • 4 Ripe Bananas

  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda

  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

  • 1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon 

  • 1/2 Teaspoon salt

  • Optional: 1 cup of chopped nuts or chocolate chips 

Prep Time:  15 min
Cook time:  50 min 
Total Time:  1 hour 5 min

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease pan with butter and set aside.

  2. In a bowl, heat butter until its melted (I put it in the microwave).

  3. Either in the same bowl or in a mixer, add the bananas and mash.

  4. Add in the vanilla extract and eggs to the same bowl, stir until no yellow streaks of egg remain. 

  5. In a seperate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. 

  6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingrediets and mix together. I do this in a mixer, I slowly add the dry ingredients so that I dont get clumps. You can also do it by hand and a spatula. 

  7. Pour the batter into prepared load pan and bake for 45-55 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean. 

  8. Enjoy! 

 

Anyone else bored at home and started baking more?! Because I sure have. Maybe its new mom life, maternity leave, quarentine, or a combo of it all. But whatever it is, Martha Stewart would be proud of my skills ;)
