Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 55 minutes
Servings 1 loaf

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ cup oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3-4 ripe bananas

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350° and grease one loaf pan (this recipe also can make a dozen muffins).
  • In a large bowl mix together your sugar, flour, salt and baking soda.
  • Add the oil, eggs and vanilla to the dry ingredients and stir well.
  • Mash 3-4 ripe bananas on a plate. Add the mashed bananas to the mixing bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Stir until everything is mixed well (do not over stir).
  • Pour the banana bread batter into the bread loaf pan. Bake for 45 minutes and then check the bread. You'll want to insert a knife into the center. If it comes out clean, pull them out. If it has a little batter still on it, then bake for another 5 minutes.
  • Once the bread is baked, remove the loaf from the pan. Place the banana bread loaf on a wire cooling rack. Enjoy!
