1 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
3/4 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 4×8 inch loaf pan.
Mix Butter and Bananas: In a mixing bowl, mix the melted butter with the mashed bananas until well combined.
