This classic moist banana bread is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With four large ripe bananas, it’s packed with natural sweetness and perfect for a quick breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

    Directions

    Step 1

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

    Step 2

    Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl with a fork until smooth. This will be the base of your banana bread.

    Step 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to combine.

    Step 4

    Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.

    Step 5

    In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and vanilla extract. Add the egg mixture to the banana mixture and stir until well combined.

    Step 6

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Don't overmix.

    Step 7

    Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    Conclusion

    Let the banana bread rest in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool. Once cooled, wrap it in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and store at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
