Banana Bread

So most people know that I'm not the biggest fan of bananas. I don't really like the texture and how for me it seems to overpower every other flavor in a recipe.  But per my mother's request I made a banana bread.
Ingredients 
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup oil
3 1/2 bananas, very ripe, mashed
2 tablespoons heavy creme
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-3 drops of almond extract

Instructions
1. Set oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of a loaf pan with parchment paper.
2. Sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
3. Beat sugar and eggs with a whisk until light and fluffy, about 10 minutes.
4. Drizzle in oil.
5. Add mashed bananas, heavy creme, almond extract and vanilla.
6. Pour into a lined loaf pan and bake for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
