Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 9 x 5″ loaf pan. Line the pan with a piece of parchment paper, cut so that it extends on two sides to easily remove the bread from the pan.

Step 2

Mash the bananas in the bottom of a large bowl, enough for 2 cups. Whisk in the eggs. Switch to a spatula and stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, and vanilla extract.

Step 3

Stir in the baking soda, cinnamon, and kosher salt. Add the flour and gently stir until just combined and no streaks of flour remain.

Step 4

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake 55 to 60 minutes*, until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out with a few clinging crumbs (or the internal temperature is 200°F).

Step 5

Cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then run a knife around the edge and invert the loaf onto a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature. (If desired, allow to cool fully and top with a glaze.***)

Step 6

Storage info: The bread lasts 5 days at room temperature wrapped in aluminum foil, refrigerated for 10 days, or frozen for 3 months (slice it into pieces and wrap it in plastic wrap then a freezer-safe bag or container).
