~1/2 cup butter
~3/4 cup brown sugar
~2 eggs, beaten

~Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

~In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended. Stir banana mixture into flour mixture; stir just to moisten. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
