Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9×5-inch loaf pan.
In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the egg, vanilla extract, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon; mix well.
In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the banana mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
Fold in melted butter or applesauce until mixed through.
Pour batter into the greased loaf pan and bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Allow cooling in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
