DAD'S FAMOUS BANANA BREAD



Dad's Famous Banana Bread image

By far one of the best banana breads I have ever had! Simple but well worth it! My dad will always make at least once a month. I've made a few changes from my dad's recipe by adding chocolate chips and some chopped nuts. This makes the banana bread even better, still great without those two items though. With any banana bread, make sure your bananas are over ripe or really bruised...this makes for the best bread. So the next time your bananas go bad, make some banana bread or freeze them for later. =)

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 loaf, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup oil
3 1/2 bananas, very ripe, mashed
2 tablespoons creme fraiche or 2 tablespoons sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped

Steps:

  • Set oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Beat sugar and eggs with a whisk until light and fluffy, about 10 minutes. Drizzle in oil. Add mashed bananas, creme fraiche, and vanilla. Fold in dry ingredients and nuts. Pour into a lined loaf pan and bake for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the banana bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes: This will allow the flour to absorb the liquid and the gluten to relax, resulting in a more tender banana bread.
  • Bake the banana bread in a loaf pan: A loaf pan will help the banana bread bake evenly.
  • Check the banana bread for doneness with a toothpick: When a toothpick inserted into the center of the banana bread comes out clean, it is done.
  • Let the banana bread cool completely before slicing: This will help the banana bread hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Banana bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a moist and flavorful banana bread that your family and friends will love.
