Banana Bread

I've tried a bunch of banana bread recipes and found this one to be one of the easiest and most reliable. I found this recipe at allrecipe.com submitted by Shelley Albeluhn. This is with minor changes I made in the process of baking.

INGREDIENTS

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 1/3 cups mashed overripe bananas (I used 4 small bananas)

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended. Stir banana mixture into flour mixture. Stir only enough to moisten. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
3. Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center of the loaf comes out clean. Check after 60 minutes then every 5 minutes for doneness. Let bread cool, then turn out onto a wire rack.
