Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8 x 8 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spraying it lightly with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix melted butter, light brown sugar, and salt until combined. Stir in the egg, vanilla, and cinnamon, then add mashed banana.
