Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe bananas (about 1 1/3 cups mashed)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 9×5 loaf pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas well. Add the egg, vanilla extract, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon; stir until combined.

  4. Fold in the melted butter until fully incorporated.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Allow to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
