Ingredients

• 3 large ripe bananas
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas using a fork or potato masher until smooth.

Step 3

Stir in the granulated sugar and melted butter until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.

Step 5

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

Step 6

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

Step 7

If using, gently fold in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the banana bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
