Classic Banana Bread Recipe

Ingredients:

2 to 3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/3 cup melted butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Optional add-ins:

1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as walnuts or pecans)
1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Stir the melted butter into the mashed bananas.
Add the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture, and mix well.
Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture, and stir to combine.
Gradually add the flour to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
If using, fold in the chopped nuts or chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
