I've made a lot of banana bread and this recipe is fail safe. It always comes out really yummy. It does have a lot of sugar and I haven't really played around with reducing the amount but I'm sure it could be done. Also calls for oil which could be substituted with applesauce. I sometimes throw in choc. chips and marshmallows for a fun kid dessert.
Ingredients
- 3 very ripe med. bananas
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup oil (i use canola)
- 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Directions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees
- Beat bananas in mixer until well mashed. In a bowl combine: buttermilk, eggs and oil. Stir until well blended, then pour into mashed bananas. Mix until well combined. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl (I blend with wisk), then add to banana mixture. Mix only until combined, do not over mix. Add any additions you would like - nuts, choc. chips, marshmallows, etc.
- Grease loaf pan with Pam or butter. I find this recipe makes a little too much for one pan so I usually make a large and a small loaf.
- Bake at 325 degrees for 50 minutes or until middle is set.
