World's Greatest Banana Bread Recipe


Recommended Posts

humbly submitted.

 

juice from 1 lemon (or not, totally optional)

3 RIPE bananas(the deader the better-black is great!)

1/2 cup softened Butter (NOT margarine, please!)

1-3 T. honey

 

cream all these together

 

add:

1 and 1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/2 cup oatmeal

1/2 teaspoon of each of the following:

baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon ( ALSO A PINCH OF SALT, THAT i FORGOT TO MENTION INITIALLY)

 

(today I made them, but had no baking powder, so I added two eggs instead)

 

1 cup (or less) chopped walnuts (or not)

Mix by hand very gently and until all ingredients are just incorporated.

 

I make in small muffin tins, sprayed with pam. You can make a loaf of bread, or regular sized muffins too. Bake at 375 till brown (15-20 minutes? I never set the timer)

 

These never last more than two days.

Adapted from a banana bread recipe from the cookbook Laurel's Kitchen.

Yep. Old hippie chick am I.

 

You can double or triple this, but use a bit less butter when you do.

I'm so glad I looked at posts from yesterday! My dc watched "Sid the Science Kid" this morning, and it was all about rotting food! Specifically, bananas. We have at least 4 blackened, in the freezer-waiting. The dc begged me to make banana bread today, and your receipe looks perfect-easy and healthy. Thanks!:001_smile:

Wow, I'm printing this off and going to e-mail it my friend who can't do eggs. A no egg recipe is hard to come by...Oh, and I love the oats addition. Yummy.
