- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 4 ripe bananas, mashed

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together.
In a separate large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the mashed bananas, milk, and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, mixing well after each addition.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
