Beautiful and delicious!
2 c. unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 c. sugar
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 very ripe, soft, darkly speckled large bananas, mashed well (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/4 c. plain yogurt
2 large eggs, beaten lightly
6 tbsp. butter, melted and cooled
1 tsp. vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS Adjust oven rack to the lower-middle position and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan; set aside.
Whisk the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl; set aside.
Mix the mashed bananas, yogurt, eggs, butter, and vanilla with wooden spoon in a medium bowl.
Lightly fold the banana mixture into the dry ingredients with a rubber spatula until just combined and batter looks thick and chunky. Scrape the batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the surface with a rubber spatula.
Bake until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
