Notes
Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness. Don't skip the salt, as it balances the sweetness. Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling. Experiment with different nuts or dried fruits for added texture. For storage, keep in an airtight container for up to three days or freeze for longer preservation.
