  • Total Time: 85 minutes
  • Yield: 1 loaf (about 10 slices)

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a bowl, combine mashed bananas, melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients into wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Pour half of the batter into the loaf pan. Mix remaining cinnamon into the remaining batter and swirl it on top of the initial layer.
  6. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
