our favorite banana bread
I've probably posted this recipe before, but after baking my third loaf this week, I thought it was worthy of a repost. It is sweet and soft and just exactly what a banana bread should be.
Banana Bread
makes one loaf
2 1/2 cups flour, or 11.9 oz
3/4 to 1 cup sugar, depending on how ripe your bananas are
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons melted butter
3/4 cup milk
1 egg
2-3 ripe bananas
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease your pan. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside. Mash the bananas, then mix in the sugar, milk, and egg. Add dry ingredients and mix until combined. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
One loaf doesn't last a day at our house. It is one of our favorite after school treats.

ReplyDeleteHey, didn't you use to have a different banana bread recipe? The one with the cinnamon? I thought I got it from you anyway! That one is my favorite, because it is so easy as well as yummy! Should I be switching to this one? :)
