MOIST AND DELICIOUS BANANA BREAD



Moist and Delicious Banana Bread image

This is the best banana bread I have ever had. I buy really ripe bananas just so I can make this :-) Got the recipe years ago from my friend Rachel. We used to beg her to make this for us in college! I think the moistness is due to the 1/2 cup of oil - I didn't say it was the healthiest banana bread around, but it is worth the extra time on the treadmill!

MOIST & DELICIOUS BANANA NUT BREAD



Moist & Delicious Banana Nut Bread image

I got this recipe when I was 12 and have used it for the past 33 years and haven't found one better! My son used it when he was 12 at the California State Fair and won a first place ribbon with it. It is just simply delicious & moist. I either make a loaf or put it into muffin cups & make muffins for my kids to grab in the morning on their way to school. Using margarine makes the muffins come out in a better form, but the butter has a better flavor, so I usually use 1/2 of each to get the best of both worlds.

Time 1h20m

Yield 18 muffins, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup butter (or margarine)
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs (beaten)
3 ripe bananas, smashed (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup milk
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2-1 cup chopped pecans (optional) or 1/2-1 cup walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Cream butter & sugar. Add vanilla & eggs. Combine dry ingredients, add alternately with bananas & milk. Add nuts if desired. Grease & flour 1 bread pan (2-3 smaller pans) or pour into muffin cups. For loaf bake at 350 for 45-60 minute Muffins 350 for 20-25min. Enjoy!
  • *Note- I usually use a smaller bread pan to make the 2 loaves, or use a larger one and just make 1 big loaf, but it will need to bake longer. I adjusted the time because people had been saying it was over baking, now people are saying it's under baked. I would use the old fashion test of a tooth pick at 45 min, then at 1 hour -- up to 1 hour & 30 min if needed. Hope that helps!

VERY MOIST BANANA NUT BREAD



Very Moist Banana Nut Bread image

This is a very easy, "no mixer" bread to make. It is very moist and a little heavy type banana bread. The really important thing to remember is using all black bananas to get my same results. I always use 5 medium sized bananas and this recipe makes 2 loaves. Also, I've never used buttermilk, but sour milk instead..a little vinegar added to regular milk. I've used this recipe since 1972 and last year made 32 loaves to give away for Christmas! It's truly a wonderful bread. I only bake it until the toothpick comes out almost clean, as we like it really moist. If you over bake it, or wait til the toothpick is completely clean, the bread will be a lot dryer. I realize some like it this way, so thats why I've given this hint. My family and friends would rather have it a little under done than over. It's so good with coffee, butter/jelly or I like mine just plain. I bake it in tin foil pans and it freezes wonderfully. I try to always have one or two in the freezer for company, or a little gift. This recipe came from a ladies club cookbook. The kind where everyone contributes recipes, they are made into a recipe book and sold to make money for charities. All the cooks are just plain "down home" country gals that produce miracles in the kitchen. It's my favorite cookbook and I've almost worn it out and it can't be replaced. I know there are many banana bread recipes here, so thanks for trying this recipe. I hope you enjoy it!

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 loaves, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups flour
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/3 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 cup buttermilk (I've always used sour milk)
1 cup chopped pecans
4 -5 bananas (use completely black bananas, this is very important)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°. Grease or spray 2 loaf pans.
  • In a large bowl, mash bananas with a masher or by well washed hands.
  • Dissolve soda in buttermilk-- use a larger container as it will foam up quite a bit.
  • Mix all ingredients by hand and add in 1 cup chopped nuts. Bake at 350° for 1 hour, or until toothpick comes out ALMOST clean.
  • Totally clean will mean a dryer loaf.
  • Let cool 15 minutes after removing from oven and remove from pans.
  • Or, let cool, cover with foil, slide into freezer bags and freeze.
  • Great when using tin foil pans.

MOIST BANANA BREAD! - DAIRY FREE



Moist Banana Bread! - Dairy Free image

A long time family favorite, everybody will ask for the recipe! The banana bread has minimal ingredients but is light, moist and delicious! It freezes well! I have adjusted the recipe to 3/4 cup sugar based on the feedback reviews, a test bake and a permanent adjustment to my recipe! I toss overripe banana's in the freezer until I have enough. I always double the recipe and sometimes add walnuts or chocolate chips (approx 1/2 cup, unmeasured, I just dump). Baking time may take between 1 hr - 1hr 15 minutes. Less if you want to make muffins or mini-loafs. Test with a toothpick should be clean if cooked through.
