This is best if served a day after baking. Or right out of the oven while the top crust is slightly crunchy.
Ingredients
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ cup butter (one stick)
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 or 3 bananas, mashed
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (walnut or pecan) – optional
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour the loaf pan.
  2. Mix together sugar, butter, eggs, baking soda, salt, and vanilla. Add the bananas until blended. Stir in the flour until it comes together as a batter, similar in consistency to cake batter.
  3. Bake between 1 hour and 1 hour 15 minutes, or until a knife (or toothpick) inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in the pan, then remove the pan and cool on a wire rack until completely cool.
