Cuisine: American
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Servings: Makes 4 mini loaves or 1 large loaf

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup butter
• 3/4 cup light brown sugar
• 2 1/3 cups mashed overripe bananas
• 2 large eggs, beaten

Here’s how to make it:

1. Lightly grease four mini loaf pans. 
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Use a whisk and stir the ingredients well.
3. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended. 
4. Stir banana mixture into the flour mixture until just combined. Pour batter into prepared loaf pans.
5. Bake mini loaves in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 30 minutes. Once cooked (knife comes out clean), remove bread from pans and cool on a cooling rack.

Notes: For freezing, wrap in plastic wrap and foil. If you’d prefer to use one 9x5-inch loaf pan, bake for 65 minutes at 350 degrees F.
