Number Of Ingredients 11

4 overripe bananas
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup oat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup almonds, walnuts or pecans (Optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a loaf pan and line with wax paper. Combine the bananas and sugar (Wet Works 1) and mix with a potato masher until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine butter, eggs and almond extract. Combine with the banana and sugar mixture. Combine flours, baking soda and salt. Add to the wet ingredients. If using nuts, fold them into the batter now. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 50 minutes to 1 hour or until center registers 210°F and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on stovetop 15 minutes, then remove from pan to a cooling rack Cool completely before slicing. Tightly wrap leftover bread. It will keep at room temperature for about 5 days.

I've made this banana bread several times now and it's always a hit! It's so moist and flavorful, and the streusel topping is the perfect finishing touch.

This banana bread was good, but not great. It was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the texture was a bit dense.

This recipe was a disaster! The banana bread was dry and crumbly, and the streusel topping was burnt. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Overall, this was a good recipe. The banana bread was moist and flavorful, but I found the streusel topping to be a bit too sweet.

This banana bread was a bit dry for my taste. I think I might try adding some extra butter or oil next time.
