This banana bread comes together quickly, especially if you have a stand mixer. It relies on plenty of overripe bananas for a naturally sweet and moist crumb. The key is to combine the wet and dry ingredients gently, mixing just until everything is moistened, and then to pull the loaf from the oven as soon as a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
