Homemade Banana Bread

My husband says that this bread is the reason he married me! I love this recipe because it only uses one bowl and it turns out awesome every time!

 

  My husband once told me that this recipe is the reason he married me. So I love it not only because it tastes great and it got me a husband, but also because it only uses one bowl and always seems to turn out perfect. I don’t know about your family, but mine goes through 3-4 bananas per day so I almost always have extra ripe ones hanging around to make up a loaf of this awesome bread. Also, you can make them as muffins here.

 

  Don’t forget to check a few of my other bread recipes:

Step 2: In mixing bowl, mash bananas with fork.

Step 3: Add melted butter and stir.

Step 4: Mix in sugar, egg and vanilla.

Step 5: Mix in baking soda, salt and cinnamon.

Step 7: Pour into loaf pan and bake for 1 hr or until knife in center comes out clean.

 

Enjoy!

    I appreciate that you know the difference between "lie" and "lay" and correctly use them.

    Oh this looks so yummy! I'm pinning it! :) Btw. I got lots of bananas today for a discount price, because the store was getting rid of the blackened ones. They are just perfect for this recipe and I'll use the rest for fruit leather and freezing for cakes and breads in the future.

    Saw this on Pinterest and finally got around to making it. Literally the BEST banana bread I've every made! I put a few choc chips in it and my husband loved it! Thanks for such a great, and super easy recipe! I'll be making this again and again.

      My loaf pan is 8.5 x 4.5 and about 3 inches deep. I've use larger ones with this recipe too.
