1
Prepare the Batter
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined.
3
Bake
Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
