Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Mash bananas, stir in melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix dry ingredients separately and fold into wet. Add optional mix-ins.
Pour batter into pan and bake 50–60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Slice and serve. Enjoy plain, with butter, or toasted.

Notes

For extra moisture, use overripe bananas. Whole wheat flour can replace all-purpose for a healthier loaf. Freeze leftovers for up to 3 months.
