Adapted from All Recipes http://allrecipes.com/recipe/20144/banana-banana-bread/

Ingredients

4 VERY ripe bananas (~2.5/3 cups of mashed banana) mashed
2 cups of AP flour
1 tsp of baking soda
1 tsp of sea salt
3/4 cup of light brown sugar

1/4 cup of white sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup of softened butter, plus 1 tbs
1/4 tbs of vanilla extract
1/2 tbs of cinnamon
1/4 tsp of grated nutmeg

Banana Bread

  1. Preheat your oven to 350
  2. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt and set aside
  3. Cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs, and continue to mix until everything is blended and smooth.
  4. Stir in the mashed banana, and the spices.
  5. Fold the banana mixture into the flour until it's just moistened. DO NOT OVERMIX IT! It's going to be ugly. That's okay. It will be beautiful soon.
  6. Spoon the batter into a greased loaf pan, and cook for 45 minutes to an hour. I tend to cut the oven off after 45 minutes, and crack the oven door and leave the bread in for the final 15 minutes.
  7. Take the bread out, and cool it on a wire rack for 30 minutes. This tastes way better the next day, so be patient! It's a virtue or whatever.
