Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Lightly grease a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan with softened butter or vegetable oil spray.

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

In a separate bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of butter with 3/4 cup of brown sugar.

Beat 2 eggs and add them to the mixture.

Mash 4 to 5 over ripe bananas to yield 2 and 1/3 cups banana.

Blend the banana mixture into the flour mixture, mixing just to moisten.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Place the filled pan in a preheated oven for 60 to 65 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack.
