Banana bread is an easy recipe that was started back in the 18th century. Over time people have added ingredients to the recipe or just substituted ingredients based on what banana bread taste they were going for.
There are several different variations. Chocolate Chip Banana Bread, Banana Nut Bread, Blueberry Banana Bread and the list can go on and on. In order to get all the variations it all has to start with the foundation of the banana bread recipe.
Once you make this banana bread recipe from "A Stir in The Mist" you can go ahead and add whatever you wish to it. The only thing I would not change are the basic ingredients.
Once all your ingredients are mixed in two separate bowls. One for dry mix and the other for the wet mixes, you can combine and do it right in
your mixer to make it easy and mess free.
Make sure your bananas are nice and ripe. Once mine start to get really brown I i put them in the freezer. They will defrost quickly when taken out, just make sure you keep them in a bowl to defrost. Otherwise it could get messy.
I was short one ripe banana while making this recipe, I could have cut the recipe in half but instead I threw in a fresh banana. Its a banana bread no..no.. I understand. The riper the bananas the sweeter and lighter the banana bread will taste.
This recipe can make two nice size breads. Or if you want to do a little treat that is already portioned out, you can make them into muffins.
When baking I keep an eye out to make sure it is not getting to brown on top. When my timer goes off I insert a toothpick and pull it out making sure there is no moistness on the toothpick. If you notice the inside of the banana bread has stuck to the toothpick, it is not done.
Once the banana bread in completely cooled down, you can go ahead and enjoy or wrap tightly in plastic wrap so you can enjoy at a later time.
