Banana Bread

Somebody (not me) got a little ambitious about eating a banana every day and bought in bulk at the grocery store. You know what that means!

Black bananas

Which became Banana Bread muffins!

I found this simple recipe and I already had the ingredients. I had egg beaters instead of eggs and rolled the dice and substitute them, and it turned out fine! I had no idea you could do that. If you aren't too lazy to go to the grocery store like me, you should definitely add walnuts. I put brown sugar on top because I felt like it.

Here is the recipe:

Banana Bread Recipe

Prep time: 5 minutes

  • Cook time: 1 hour

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.
