Method
- Preheat your oven to 350F (175C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or baking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the brown sugar and butter together on high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, stopping to scrape down the bowl between each. Beat in the vanilla extract. Mix in the mashed bananas.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and fold together until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for 20 minutes before removing it to a wire rack to finish cooling completely.

Notes
For the best results, measure your flour accurately by spooning it into a measuring cup and leveling it off with a knife. Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for optimal creaming and binding. You can mash your bananas until smooth or leave a few chunks for texture.
