Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

- Whisk eggs, sugar, mashed banana and oil in a large bowl.
- Add dry ingredients to banana mixture and stir until just combined.
- Spread batter into prepared pan.
- Bake about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Transfer to a wire rack. Let the loaf cool in the pan 15 minutes.
- Run a knife around the inside of the ban to release the bread, and turn out onto rack.
- Allow the loaf to cool completely. (It won't taste as good warm, trust me).
