Dessert & Baked Goods » Banana Bread
Every family has a recipe for banana bread. Some fantastic, some so-so. This one's a keeper. Chloe Rosen mixes up a batter that's perfectly textured, in fact, "lumpy" is the description that suits exactly what you're looking for. Her recipe bakes up a loaf of scrumptious bread that's great served warm, room temperature, plain, or topped with whipped cream. Just the treat to pop in a lunchbox too.
Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 4 very ripe bananas

How-to
Preparation
- Lightly grease a loaf pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray and set aside
- Preheat oven to 350º
Mix Wet Ingredients
- Mash all bananas with a potato masher. Then add in your beaten eggs
- Add in the softened butter, in pieces, and incorporate into the bananas and eggs using a pastry cutter until you see just tiny pieces of butter in the mix and set aside
Mix Dry Ingredients
- Sift flour, sugar, baking soda and salt into a separate bowl and stir to combine
Combine Ingredients & Bake
- Add dry ingredients into wet and stir just to combine, so that you have a thick mixture, all moist. Don't over-mix, batter should be lumpy
- Pour into the greased loaf pan, and bake in a 350º oven for about 1 hour. Stick with a knife to determine if it is cooked through. Bread should be golden brown on the outside
