In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.

In another bowl, use a fork to mash up the bananas until smooth.

Beat the butter and sugar together for a couple of minutes until creamy. Crack in the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly each time. Then pour in the buttermilk and dash in the vanilla.

Slowly stir the dry mix into the wet ingredients a bit at a time. Once combined, fold in the mashed bananas.
