The best bananas to use for banana bread are those that are over-ripe. The yellow peels should be at least half browned, and the bananas inside squishy and browning.
There's nothing like a treat that is packed full of fruity goodness, and that is exactly what this delicious Banana Bread recipe provides you with!
Banana Bread Recipe
Ingredients
➥ 1 cup granulated sugar
➥ 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
➥ 2 large eggs
➥ 3 ripe bananas
➥ 1 tablespoon milk
➥ 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
➥ 2 cups all-purpose flour
➥ 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
➥ 1 teaspoon baking soda
➥ 1 teaspoon salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Butter a loaf pan.
Cream the sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a small bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Mix in the milk and cinnamon.
In another bowl, mix together the flour, Baking Powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the banana mixture to the creamed mixture and stir until combined. Add dry ingredients, mixing just until flour disappears.
Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Set aside to cool on a rack for 15 minutes. Remove bread from pan, invert onto rack and cool completely before slicing.
Now enjoy your healthy treat!
