Easy Banana Bread

INGREDIENTS

• 2 ripe bananas
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 cup brown sugar or honey (optional)
• 2 medium eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 ½ cups plain/all-purpose flour

METHOD

• Preheat oven to 180deg C
• In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until soft and smooth.
• Add the melted butter, baking soda, eggs, honey and vanilla, and stir well.
• Mix in the flour
• Feel free to add any chocolate chips, nuts or raisins at this point.
• Pour batter into a buttered loaf tin and bake for 45-50 minutes or until cooked through (I usually insert a kebab stick to the centre and if it comes out clean it means its cooked)
• Remove bread from oven and from pan and allow to stand for at least 10 minutes or until cool, before slicing
