Ingredients

3 medium overripe bananas
1/3 cup of organic granulated sugar
1/3 cup of organic brown sugar

2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
2 cups of all-purpose flour

For Topping
1/4 cup of organic brown sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°.

2. A 9-inch loaf pan is lightly oiled and a strip of parchment paper is arranged width-wise along the middle with just a bit hanging out on each side.

3. Peel and put the bananas in a big mixing bowl With a fork or potato masher, mash them well.

4. To the bowl, add the sugar, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla. Stir until they’re well-mixed.

5. Add the flour to the bowl, then sprinkle on top of the flour with the baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

6. Just stir everything together until it’s mixed. Just don’t overmix. The batter’s going to be thick.

8. With the back of a spoon, spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top. Sprinkle the brown sugar on the top.

9. Bake for 50 mins or until it is clean with a toothpick inserted into the middle

10. Remove the oven from the pan and move it to a rack for cooling. Before removing it from the pan, let the loaf cool for at least 15 mins. Slice and serve.
