Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth.
Add the egg, sugar, applesauce, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve plain or with your favorite spread. Enjoy!
