Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease an 8½x4½ inch loaf pan.

In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking soda and salt.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix just until combined.
Pour the batter into loaf pan. Add any toppings you’d like. If topping with more banana, slice longways and place on top of batter, cut side up.
Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
Let cool in the loaf pan for 15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
