Brown Sugar Banana Bread

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, blending well after each addition. Then stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the banana bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
