Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 c sugar
1/2 c butter or margarine, softened
2 eggs
1 1/2 c ripe, mashed bananas (3-4 medium)
1/2 c buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 c chopped nuts, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease bottoms of 10 mini loaf pans (can use a regular sized bread pan or muffin tin, but adjust cooking time), with shortening, cooking spray, or butter.
  • 2. In a large bowl, cream sugar and butter. Add eggs, blend well. Add bananas, buttermilk, and vanilla; beat until smooth. Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt just until moistened. Stir in nuts if desired. Divide batter evenly among pans, filling about ½ full.
  • 3. Bake 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes, loosen from pans and place on cooling rack. Cool completely, about 2 hours.

Tips:

  • For a moist and flavorful banana bread, use overripe bananas. The browner the bananas, the better the flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough and dense loaf.
  • Be careful not to overbake the banana bread. Overbaking will make the loaf dry and crumbly.
  • Allow the banana bread to cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help it hold its shape better.
  • Store the banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Mini banana bread loaves are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They're also a great way to use up overripe bananas. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a batch of warm, fluffy banana bread loaves that the whole family will love.
