My son loves bananas and he bought a bunch when he was here a few weeks ago. They got so ripe after a few days so I decided to make them into a banana bread. He was totally okay with it and here is the yummy result.

I love a good banana bread and I hadn’t baked one in a while so I really enjoyed this one. I found a recipe online that looked good but I did tweak it a little bit. The recipe calls for toppings, but I decided to skip the toppings. But you can add toppings if you want. Examples of good toppings would be nuts, chocolate or berries.

Here is how I prepared this super delicious banana bread. I only had cinnamon sugar available so I used it instead of just cinnamon.

Ingredients:

• 4 large bananas, mashed
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon sugar

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Place a parchment paper on a 9×5 loaf pan.
3. Whisk the banana, sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla in a bowl.
4. In a different bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon sugar.
5. Stir the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients until combined.
6. Pour the batter into the pan.
7. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes.
8. Enjoy!

It was so good the three of us really enjoyed it. I only made a loaf so it was gone in a heartbeat. And guess what? Both the hubs and I are craving for this delicious sweet thing again so I’m going to make one today. Can’t wait to indulge. Nom!

How about you? Do you love banana bread, too?

Happy Foodie Friday, friends!
