Traditional Banana Bread
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Butter a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan and set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the sugar and butter together until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs: Add the eggs to the butter-sugar mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Prepare the banana mixture: In a small bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Stir in the milk and cinnamon until well combined.
- Combine the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix it all together: Add the banana mixture to the butter mixture and stir until just combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until smooth and well combined.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Let the banana bread cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes. Slice and enjoy!
