Banana Bread
Banana Bread. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended. This is a very moist banana bread with lots of banana flavor. There is a bit of spice for those who like a bit of 'extra' in their banana bread. Make Banana Bread using 10 ingredients and 5 steps easily.
Ingredients
-
1/3 cup of melted coconut oil (or extra-virgin olive oil)
-
1/2 cup of honey (or maple syrup)
-
2 of eggs
-
2-3 of mashed ripe bananas (about 1 cup)
-
1/4 cup of milk
-
1 tsp of baking SODA
-
1 tsp of vanilla extract
-
Pinch of salt
-
1/2 tsp of ground cinnamon
-
1 of & 3/4 cups (224 grams) flour
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 325F/165C. Grease a loaf pan and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the coconut (or olive) oil (1/3 cup) and honey (1/2 cup) together using a whisk. Add 2 eggs and beat again, then whisk in the mashed bananas (1 cup) and milk (1/4 cup).
- Add 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp vanilla extract, a pinch of salt and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon. Whisk to blend, then using a big spoon stir in 1 & 3/4 cups of flour. Mix just until combined, it’s ok if there are some lumps.
- Transfer the batter into the greased loaf pan. Sprinkle with a bit of ground cinnamon.
- Baking time is about 55 minutes, but keep checking the cake before. In case the top starts to burn cover it with aluminium foil. The bread will be ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread for 5 more minutes in the switched-off oven, then transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 more minutes.
In another bowl, combine the eggs, bananas, oil, buttermilk and vanilla; add to flour mixture, stirring just until combined. Stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. There are several possible explanations behind this. You may have added too much or too little baking soda, or maybe your baking soda has already gone bad. Baking is an exact science, so little mishaps like this could be detrimental to your bread!
