Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
1½ teaspoons baking soda
Pinch salt
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 medium ripe bananas (mashed (about 1⅓ cups or 303 grams))
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two 8x4-inch loaf pans; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Add the bananas and stir gently to combine. Add the flour mixture and stir until completely blended. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the walnuts.
  • Divide the mixture into the two loaf pans. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until a thin knife inserted into the center comes out clean. If the loaves begin to get too dark before they are done in the middle, cover with foil. Allow to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. The bread can be stored, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, at room temperature for up to 5 days. To freeze, wrap in plastic wrap then in aluminum foil and freezer for up to 3 months.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter ((softened))
2 Eggs ((large))
3 Bananas ((ripe & large sized))
2 Cups Flour ((all purpose flour))
1 Cup White Granulated Sugar
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder ((aluminum free))
1/2 Teaspoon Salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Mash bananas with a fork.
  • Soften butter in a microwave.
  • Stir eggs, bananas and butter together.
  • Mix in remaining ingredients. Stir until the batter is fully mixed.
  • Optional - If you want to enhance this easy "basic" banana bread, you can stir in 1 cup of your family's favorite dessert ingredient (i.e. chocolate chips or chopped walnuts) after you have mixed the batter.
  • Pour the finished batter into a nonstick bread pan. Smooth out the top of the batter within the bread pan.
  • Bake in the oven for 65-70 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Take out of oven and let the banana bread cool down in the bread pan for 10 minutes. Do not remove the banana bread from the bread pan during this 10 minute cool down period. Use oven mitts as the bread pan will be very hot coming out of the oven.
  • After 10 minutes, remove the banana bread from the bread pan. Place the banana bread on a cooling rack in order to completely cool. This cool down may take 1-2 hours. Gently slide a silicon spatula between the banana bread and the bread pan walls if the banana bread is stuck in the pan.

GRANDMA'S BANANA BREAD (AMAZING)



Grandma's Banana Bread (Amazing) image

This is one of those recipes that is so simple yet so amazingly good, that you keep thinking there has to be more to it. It's hard to mess up sweet breads like this, but this is the best of the best. There is something magic in its simple ingredients, and when I experiment with it, I always find I still like the original...

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 c butter
1 c sugar (i've tried brown (love brown), and it works, but white is best in this recipe. it lets the other favors shine)
2 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 c (takes about 3) over ripe bananas, mashed
2 c flour
1/2 c nuts, optional (i like pecans)

Steps:

  • 1. Cream butter, sugar & eggs. Add salt & baking soda; mix well. Beat in the bananas. Add the flour. Stir in nuts if using.
  • 2. Pour into a LARGE buttered loaf pan (mine measures 4 1/4" x 8 1/4" on the bottom, 5 1/2" x 9 1/2" on the top, 2 3/4" tall.) If pan is not big enough, it will not cook all the way in the center. If you have a smaller pan, don't use all the batter in one pan. The recipe says to let sit at room temp. For 20 min. I never do.
  • 3. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 45- 60 min., until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool 5-10 minutes before loosening sides and inverting, letting it cool the rest of the way on a cooling rack.
  • 4. Great out of the oven, even better the next day, if it doesn't get eaten first! Wrap up after it cools completely to keep it moist.

GRANDMA'S BEST EVER BANANA NUT BREAD



Grandma's Best Ever Banana Nut Bread image

This is dark, rich and moist. It is sweet and flavorful and I am told unlike any other people have tasted. Some liken it Mimi's Cafe, but say it is better. My mother, Belen, who passed away at the age of 100 had been making this for as long as I can remember. Please follow the instructions regarding putting the vinegar in the milk in one cup and the baking soda in warm water in another before mixing it with other ingredients. It makes a difference.
