Steps

  1. Heat oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Mash bananas in a large bowl, then stir in melted butter.
  3. Stir in sugar, egg and vanilla, then sprinkle baking soda and salt over and mix.
  4. Add flour and stir just until no dry streaks remain. Fold in chips or nuts.
  5. Bake 55–65 minutes, until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes, then turn out.
Tip: The browner the bananas, the better the bread. Freeze overripe ones whole and thaw before using.
