Ingredients
  • 3 large ripe or overripe bananas
  • 2 eggs, cracked
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature or melted
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt
Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C)

  2. Grease bread loaf pan with butter or cooking oil spray.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. Set aside.

  4. Peel the bananas and put them in another large or medium mixing bowl. Mash. Add the butter and eggs. Mix well.

  5. Combine the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Mix gently.

  6. Pour the batter into the bread loaf pan. Bake 350°F for an hour. Insert a toothpick in the middle of the loaf. If the toothpick comes out clean, it is done. Add another 10-20 minutes if not done.
