2. Mix dry ingredients
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and set aside.
3. Stir wet ingredients
In another bowl, beat the melted butter and granulated sugar until emulsified, add the eggs and continue beating, then add the mashed bananas and combine.

Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in two batches, and use a spatula to gently stir until there is no dry powder left. Avoid over-mixing which may cause the bread to become hard.
