Banana Bread I
This is a simple recipe and it is excellent. I have made this several times, it is fool proof and I get great reviews from my Thai family and friends. I use the small bananas grown right here in our yard for this.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter, softened, (1 stick or 1/2 block)
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 cups banana, mashed, small bananas if you have them
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180° C (350° F). Lightly grease with butter the bread pan.
- Cream together the sugars and butter. Mix in eggs and vanilla.
- Add the mashed bananas and mix in. Mix in the flour, then mix in the baking soda. (This looks like a lot as I doubled the recipe to make two loaves.)
- Pour batter into the prepared bread pan.
- Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and place the pan(s) on a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, roll out onto the rack and let rest until cooled.
- Slice and enjoy!
Notes
Minimal cost and a great tasting bread.
