Super Moist and Tasty Banana Bread
Ingredients
  • 1 1/3cups all purpose flour
  • 3/4teaspoon salt
  • 1/2teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4teaspoon baking soda
  • 5 1/3tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2/3cup sugar
  • 2 large eggslightly beaten
  • 1cup mashed very ripe bananas(about 2)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8.5-by-4.5-inch loaf pan (or, what I did, line it with parchment paper, letting the paper drape over the sides; this makes removing the bread from the pan very easy, as you just lift the paper, bringing the loaf with it).
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together thoroughly the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter and sugar, beating it on high speed until the mixture turns lightened in color and texture. Add the flour mixture to the butter/sugar until the consistency of brown sugar.
  3. Gradually beat in the two lightly beaten eggs. Fold in, until just combined, the mashed bananas.
  4. Scrape the mixture into the pan and spread evenly. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes (mine took the full hour). Let cool in the pan on a rack for 5 to 10 minutes before unmolding to cool completely on the rack.
