2 to 3 very ripe bananas, peeled
1/3 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of kosher salt
3/4 cup sugar (1/2 cup if you would like it less sweet, 1 cup if more sweet)
1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 4- x 8-inch loaf pan.
2. In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until the lumps are mostly gone. Stir the melted butter in with the mashed bananas.
3. Mix in the baking soda and pinch of salt. Then stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Mix in the flour. Stir until completely combined.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour at 350 degrees F., or until a butter knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack. Gently remove the cooled loaf from the pan. Slice and serve.
