Electric mixer
9"x5" loaf pan
Parchment Paper
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup white granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda

Preheat your oven to 325℉
In a large mixing bowl combine the butter and sugar.
Use an electric hand mixer to whisk the ingredients together until homogenous. The butter and sugar should resemble a wet, sandy mixture.
Add the vanilla and eggs and mix again until the eggs are fully incorporated into the mixture.
Whisk in the mashed bananas until no clumps of banana remain.
Gently whisk in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cocoa powder until no clumps of dry ingredients remain in the batter.
Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper and fill it with the banana bread batter.
Bake the bread for 1 hour, or until a toothpick can be cleanly removed from the center. Serve and enjoy!
