EXTREME BANANA NUT BREAD 'EBNB'



Extreme Banana Nut Bread 'EBNB' image

This is my mom's dense, excellent, and definitely unhealthy banana nut bread recipe. It's always completely gone in minutes. This is great at parties, but hazardous at home. HEALTH WARNINGS: EBNB may be habit forming. A very flexible recipe that will accommodate changes based on what you have on hand. Use any type of fat in place of the butter, such as shortening or oil. It works with either brown or white sugar too.

PRIZE WINNING BANANA NUT BREAD



Prize Winning Banana Nut Bread image

I have won ribbons with this recipe which I received from my grandmother. The only thing I do that is different from my grandmothers is I just throw the bananas in the freezer whole and unpeeled. Then I let them thaw and squeeze them into the batter when the recipe calls for them. I think that is the secret to the moist, denseness that my banana bread has. This bread CAN NOT be doubled. I know because I have tried 3 times and the bread won't rise. Cool COMPLETELY on a rack before wrapping and refrigerating. Or it will be icky and sticky in the middle. Enjoy!

A WINNING BANANA NUT BREAD



A Winning Banana Nut Bread image

This is my standard recipe for banana bread, been making it for years, it describes itself as so easy that your children can try their hand at it! It always turns out well for me, and I am not much of a baker. It comes from "The Best Of Winning Recipes", a compilation of recipes from a popular South African magazine, "Huisgenoot". This recipe is accredited to Mrs H van der Berg of Brits.

Provided by Karen Elizabeth

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 loaf, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ripe medium bananas
1 teaspoon lemon juice
275 g cake flour
15 ml baking powder
2 ml salt
200 g sugar
150 g peanuts, chopped
2 eggs, separated
50 g butter or 50 g margarine, melted
5 ml grated lemon rind

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350°F Grease a 23x13x7 cm loaf tin. Peel and mash the bananas and mix them with the lemon juice.
  • Sift together the cake flour, baking powder and salt, in a fairly large mixing bowl. Add the sugar and nuts and mix. Beat the egg yolks and add them to the flour mixture with the butter or margarine. Mix lightly.
  • Add the banana pulp and lemon rind and mix well.
  • Beat the egg whites until just stiff, and fold them lightly into the batter with a metal spoon.
  • Spoon the batter into the tin, level it off, and sprinkle more nuts on top if desired. (I sprinkle some brown sugar on top).
  • Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 60 minutes. Test with a skewer to see if done: if the skewer comes out clean, the loaf is ready; if it does not, bake for a further 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Allow the loaf to cool slightly in the tin. Turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana nut bread will be. Look for bananas with yellow skin that is mostly brown or black.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the bread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use good quality nuts: The nuts you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the bread. Choose fresh, high-quality nuts.
  • Don't skimp on the spices: The spices in banana nut bread add a lot of flavor. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the bread is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Banana nut bread is a delicious and easy-to-make quick bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With its moist texture, sweet banana flavor, and crunchy nuts, it's a classic that everyone will love. So next time you have some ripe bananas on hand, be sure to give this recipe a try.
