Rich Banana Bread

Ingredients:
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Directions:
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan to prevent sticking. In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas with melted butter until they are well blended. Then stir in the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually introduce these dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until everything is incorporated. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Bake in the oven for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your homemade banana bread!
