Banana Bread #Christmas Baking Contest

In our home we have learned (the hard way) to catch bananas before they become really mushy. As soon as the peels are 30% black, we make banana bread. Usually for tea. It's a special treat for Christmas breakfast!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Heat oven to 165 degrees. Grease and flour two loaf pans.
- 2
Peel the bananas. For this recipe I used 6 small bananas. If using the bigger bananas you may only need 2 or 3. Mash them using a fork really well.
- 3
Beat the eggs and add the buttermilk.
- 4
Add the oil and mashed bananas and blend. Set aside. This is the banana mixture.
- 5
In another bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. This is the dry mixture.
- 6
Add the banana mixture to the dry mixture and combine well.
- 7
This step is optional. If you wish you can add walnuts to the batter. I used 1/4 cup whole walnuts. You can add more according to taste. Chop them into small pieces and add them to the batter. Fold them in.
- 8
Pour the batter into the prepared pans. I usually only fill it about a quarter full. (If you fill it half or almost full, the bread becomes very brown or burnt on the outside and the center may still not be done.) Bake for about 30 minutes. Keep checking for doneness.

Nikki's Brown Sugar Banana Bread Nikki's Brown Sugar Banana Bread
whenever we have mushy bananas hanging around, i make banana bread and always used our families go-to recipe. recently my hubby had a really rough night at work and i wanted to cheer him up with some, but i only had half the sugar i needed, so i decided to try it using half brown sugar, and it came out fantastic! btw, this recipe makes 1 standard loaf and 12 mini muffins. how you enjoy it as much as we did!

Banana Bread Banana Bread
When I was young, my grandma used to always bake banana bread for us, and we'd eat a slice for breakfast every morning before school. Now that I'm older, I've found myself frequenting coffee shops in the morning, searching for the sweet smell of fresh baked banana bread. On most day, a slice is not difficult to find, but every once in a while, my go to spot sells out before I can reach it. For those days, I've started baking my own.Banana bread is very simple to make, and this recipe is very straightforward, though I've added my own twist by baking the bananas with sugar first to add a little caramelization and bring out the banana's aroma.Hope you enjoy! kev.link -
