In a small bowl, add 2 bananas, and mash with a fork until soft but textured.

In a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer, add the remaining 2 bananas and brown sugar. Using an electric mixer fitted with whisk attachment, mix for 3 minutes, or until whipped and completely combined. Add the butter, eggs, and vanilla, and mix on medium speed, until ingredients are combined.
