This is the best one I have tasted so far!!!
Here, buttermilk replaces nearly all of the oil. Very ripe bananas give the best flavor.

1 cup smashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium)


1/3 cup buttermilk


1 tablespoon vegetable oil


1 tablespoon vanilla extract


1 3/4 cups all purpose flour


2 teaspoons baking powder


1/2 teaspoon baking soda


1/2 teaspoon salt











Preheat oven to 325掳F. Lightly grease 8 1/2x4 1/2x2 1/2-inch pan; dust with flour. Using electric mixer; beat eggs and sugar in large bowl until thick and light, about 5 minutes. Mix in smashed bananas, buttermilk, oil and vanilla. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt over mixture; beat until just blended. Transfer batter to prepared pan.


Bake bread until golden brown on top and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Turn bread out onto rack and cool.
