This week I am sharing a recipe for banana bread. It is so delicious! I bought more bananas just so I could make it again this week. Usually I have to add applesauce to make it moist enough but this recipe was great even without it.

• 3 or 4 ripe bananas, smashed
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1 cup sugar (I only used 3/4 cup)
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• Pinch of salt
• 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). With a wooden spoon, mix butter into the mashed bananas in a large mixing bowl. Mix in the sugar, egg, and vanilla. Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture and mix in. Add the flour last, mix. Pour mixture into a buttered 4x8 inch loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a rack. Remove from pan and slice to serve.
