Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe bananas (about 1 1/3 cups, mashed)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (or applesauce)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the egg, vanilla extract, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon; stir until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the banana mixture and stir gently until just combined.
  4. Fold in melted butter or applesauce until fully incorporated.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 35–45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 5–10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
