170 g unsalted butter, softened
223 g brown sugar
72 g white sugar
340 g mashed banana
2 whole egg
6 g vanilla paste
6 g molasses
250 g all-purpose flour

Tips

The butter will split when adding eggs and vanilla; don't worry.
This banana bread is even better the next day.
At its peak, slice the bread, wrap each slice in plastic wrap, freeze, then thaw before enjoying. The moisture from thawing gets redistributed within the plastic wrap.
