Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Stir in the melted butter until fully combined.
Add the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy!
