Serves: Depends on how well you can control yourself

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 45 – 60 minutes

Ingredients

2-3 bananas (mashed)

75g butter (melted)

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 pinch of salt

150 sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

205g all-purpose flour

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
2. Butter a loaf pan to prevent the bread from sticking. You can also line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
3. Mash the bananas in a bowl, then add the melted butter and mix well.
4. Mix in the remaining ingredients, stirring until everything is combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or longer depending on your oven, until the bread has risen and is cooked through. Don't worry if the bread is a bit "wet" in the center.
7. Let the bread cool before serving.
8. Enjoy your delicious banana bread!

Bonus tip:

If you're baking this for an event or special occasion, it's best to bake it the day before – it's almost even better the next day!
