We eat a lot of bananas in our house, but inevitably, there is always a few that get too ripe, despite the techniques we have employed to avoid it.
No worries, banana bread is so easy to make, that we are happy to have an excuse to whip some up!
Banana Bread
Mash up 3 or 4 over ripe bananas in a mixing bowl. Add 1/3 cup melted butter and mix. Stir in 1 egg, 3/4 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt over the mixture add 1 1/2 cups of flour. Mix well and pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake for about 1 hour at 350 degrees until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool in the pan, slice and enjoy!

I love banana bread! I have 2 frozen bananas in my freezer right now so I will have to give this a try!

I hope you like it! It takes about 5 minutes to make, and only 1 bowl to wash. My daughter loves it, so I make her some almost every week.
