Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to 175°C (350°F). Prepare a loaf pan by greasing it generously with butter to prevent the bread from sticking.2
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly mash the banana until it achieves a smooth consistency, eliminating any chunks.3
Step 3
Introduce sugar, melted butter, and egg into the bowl with the mashed banana. Beat the mixture well until all ingredients are combined cohesively.4
Step 4
Carefully sift in the flour and baking powder, gently folding them into the wet mixture. Take care to combine until just incorporated, avoiding overmixing.5
Step 5
Pour the prepared batter evenly into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the surface for an even bake.6
Step 6
Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. Use a toothpick to check readiness; if it emerges clean, your bread is done. Allow to cool before slicing.
