How to make Banana Bread

Banana bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is made with ripe bananas, flour, sugar, eggs, and other ingredients. Here is a simple recipe for making banana bread:

Ingredients:

• 3 ripe bananas
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp baking soda
• Pinch of salt
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher.
3. Add the sugar, melted butter, beaten egg, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix well.
4. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the baking soda, salt, and flour.
5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.
6. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Bake the banana bread in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Let the bread cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Slice and serve the banana bread warm, or store it in an airtight container for later.

Optional additions: You can add nuts, such as chopped walnuts or pecans, or chocolate chips to the batter before baking for added flavor and texture. You can also top the bread with a sprinkle of sugar before baking for a crunchy, sweet crust. Enjoy!
