  • Total Time: 1 hour 25 minutes
  • Yield: 1 loaf (8-10 slices)

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: chopped nuts or chocolate chips for extra texture

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper. Mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, honey, and melted butter. Whisk until well incorporated. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For added flavor, sprinkle chopped nuts or chocolate chips on top before baking.
  • Storage: Wrap tightly in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature.
  • For longer storage, freeze slices individually for easy thawing.
