Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven @ 180 degrees Celsius. (15 mins before you intend to put the bread in the oven).
- 2
Line the loaf tins ahead of time too with some butter paper after putting oil on them. This recipe fills about two medium loaf tins.
- 3
Roast the nuts. You can put them on a baking sheet and roast them for 8 to 10 minutes or you could do the same in a non stick pan without any oil. Then chop them with a knife or put them in the blender and grind untill they turn into flakes.
- 4
Take the bananas and mash them with a fork. Add the lemon.
- 5
In a bowl combine the dry ingredients; flour, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon.
- 6
Sift these. Then add the nuts. (be sure to add the nuts in the dry ingredients)
- 7
Beat the melted butter and sugar well. (You can melt the butter in a double boiler). The sugar used is the normal sugar, not the powdered one.
- 8
Beat the eggs and salt in a separate bowl untill fluffy. ((If you dont wanna include the cinnamon in the recipe, add a dash of vanilla essence but cinnamon is MUCH preferred))
- 9
Add the butter sugar mixture to the eggs in a big bowl. Add the bananas and lemon and beat very lightly.
- 10
Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and fold with a spatula. (Dont over mix and dont keep the mixture for too long either as you've added the baking soda).
- 11
Scoop the mixture about halfway in the loaf tins. You can add some banana slices or nuts on the top for decoration.
- 12
Bake @ 180 degrees Celsius or 350 F for about 30 minutes in the second rack of the oven and then check with a toothpick. For the bread to be completely done, the toothpick should come out clean.
- 13
In the end, once it's almost baked, after sort of about 30 mins, shift it to the middle or the fourth rack and turn on the upper grill and give it like 5 mins for some colour to appear on it. When the toothpick comes out clean, the bread is done
- 14
(This recipe could potentially take you longer than 30 minutes depending on the size of the loaf so checking with a toothpick is crucial).
- 15
Glaze the top of the bread with butter or butter plus jam as soon as it's done for added softness.

Secret family recipe from a Mexican friend. The coffee powder is definitely the highlight of the recipe. Plantains add so much flavor to the bread after baking. If you don’t have any at home, substitute them with bananas. Bossy Panda -

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 -

Try this recipe if you have a pair of left over bananas - those which are overly ripe and the skins have slightly darkened. The quantity is enough for a 20x10x5 pan. alfredsanpedro
