How to Make Lorilou's Quick N Easy Banana Bread
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork. Add ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup packed brown sugar, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Mix well.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 50-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking for doneness around 50 minutes.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
