Once I discovered how to make banana bread, I also discovered just how much I love it! It's really quite simple to make, and the end result is so tasty...anytime of the day!
To make Banana Bread you will need:
To make Banana Bread you will need:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2 large eggs
- 3 ripe bananas (the star of the show)
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- A dash of Pumpkin Spice -optional-
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and butter a 9x5x3 loaf pan/dish.
Cream 1 stick room temperature butter and 1 cup granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy, as you can see below.
Add 2 eggs one at a time...beat well after each egg. I'll call this the creamed mixture, set this bowl aside for now.
In a small bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork.
Mix 1 tablespoon milk and 1 teaspoon cinnamon into the bananas.
Until it looks like this...
In a medium bowl: combine 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1 teaspoon baking soda together with a fork.
Add the banana mixture to the creamed mixture and stir with a spoon until combined.
Add the dry ingredients, mix until the flour disappears.
Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. At this time, I sprinkle pumpkin spice and a little extra cinnamon on top and swirl it into the batter with a butter knife or fork. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool for 15 minutes.
Isn't it beautiful?
Made with love
