I have a similar recipe.  I bring my butter to close to room temperature first; 
in other words, not directly out of the fridge and it works beautifully for me.

  Hello,

  In my other banana bread recipes, you beat the butter and sugar first.
  Since your recipe doesn't ask for this, I was wondering if when you made
  this if you first melted the butter?

  Thanks,  Carrie
