Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare an 8x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray and parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, granulated sugar, and vegetable oil until smooth.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Add the buttermilk, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas, stirring until just combined to create a lumpy batter.
  6. If desired, stir in chopped walnuts or chocolate chips.
  7. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 75 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
