Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 34 medium ripe bananas (or 2 large bananas)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare two 8×4 inch bread pans with parchment paper or grease them.
  2. In a bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth but still chunky.
  3. In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and mix well.
  4. Combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold them into the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Mix in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract until evenly incorporated.
  6. Divide the batter between prepared pans and bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
