Banana Bread

TT's Kitchen

I love bananas. So I decided to try a recipe on how to bake a banana bread. This person said that this recipe is supposed to be delicious passed down from one grandmother to another generation. I tried it. It's ok, but I wished I didn't put in that much sugar. It was slightly too sweet.
Easy to bake and fast..no kneading and rising required.



Note: Use Baking soda and not baking powder (ignorance). I baked this with baking powder. I was told that if you used baking powder, you will need at least 3 times the amount of baking soda, but that might affect the taste.








Banana Bread Recipe


Ingredients
3 or 4 ripe bananas, smashed
1/3 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar (can easily reduce to 3/4 cup)
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour


Method
No need for a mixer for this recipe. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). With a wooden spoon, mix butter into the mashed bananas in a large mixing bowl. Mix in the sugar, egg, and vanilla. Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture and mix in. Add the flour last, mix. Pour mixture into a buttered 4x8 inch loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a rack. Remove from pan and slice to serve.
