Olive Oil Banana Bread Food

BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a large bowl, cream together the eggs and sugar. Stir in the mashed bananas, vanilla, oil and cinnamon. Stir in the flour mixture, a third at a time, until just combined.
• Pour the batter into a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Bake for about 1 hour.

BANANA BREAD WITH OIL (NO BUTTER BANANA BREAD)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Mash bananas with a fork.
• Lightly beat eggs.
• Stir eggs, bananas and vegetable oil together.
• Mix in remaining ingredients. Stir until the batter is fully mixed.
• Optional - If you want to enhance this "basic" no butter banana bread, you can stir in a cup of your family's favorite dessert ingredient (i.e. chocolate chips or chopped walnuts) after you have mixed the batter.
• Pour the finished batter into a nonstick bread pan. Smooth out the top of the batter within the bread pan.
• Bake in the oven for 65-70 minutes or until golden brown.
• Take out of oven and let the banana bread cool down in the bread pan for 10 minutes. Do not remove the banana bread from the bread pan during this 10 minute cool down period. Use oven mitts as the bread pan will be very hot coming out of the oven.
• After 10 minutes, remove the banana bread from the bread pan. Place the banana bread on a cooling rack in order to completely cool. This cool down may take 1-2 hours. Gently slide a silicon spatula between the banana bread and the bread pan walls if the banana bread is stuck in the pan.

BANANA WALNUT BREAD WITH OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the olive oil and honey. Now add the eggs and whisk again to combine.
• Now add the bananas yogurt, milk, baking soda, vanilla extract, cardamom, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Whisk again.
• Using a spatula, stir in the flour; then add the dates and walnuts and stir the batter again until everything is well combined.
• Lightly oil a non-stick a 9 x 5 loaf pan like this one. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and shake very gently so it evens out.
• Bake in the 325 degrees F heated-oven. After 50 minutes or so, test by inserting a toothpick in a few places. If only a couple moist crumbs cling to it, remove it from the oven. If it needs a little more time, give it 5 more minutes or so.
• Remove from the oven and let the bread cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to cool on a wire rack for another 20 minutes or so. Slice and enjoy!

OLIVE OIL BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour a 10x5-inch loaf pan.
• Sift all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together.
• Beat brown sugar, white sugar, and eggs in a stand mixer or with a hand-held electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Reduce speed to low and slowly drizzle in olive oil until evenly combined. Beat in bananas, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until combined. Fold in 1/3 of the flour mixture with a spatula; repeat twice more until flour is fully incorporated.
• Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle walnuts and Demerara sugar over the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes.

OLIVE OIL BREAD

Steps:

• Tip the flour into a mixing bowl. For easy-blend dried yeast, stir this into the flour. For fresh yeast, crumble it and rub into the flour as you would with butter when making pastry. Add the salt and sugar.
• Boil the kettle and measure 100ml into a jug. Top up with cold water to the 300ml mark. Test the temperature with your finger - it should feel perfectly hand-hot. Add the oil.
• Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour in the liquid all at once. Mix quickly using your hands or a wooden fork to make a soft and slightly sticky dough. Wipe the dough around the bowl to pick up any loose flour.
• Sprinkle the work surface with flour and tip out the dough. Knead by stretching it away from you, then folding it in half towards you and pushing it away with the heel of your hand. Give it a quarter turn and repeat, developing a rhythm.
• When the dough is smooth, put it back into the mixing bowl, cover with a tea towel and leave to rest for 1 hr (no need to find a warm place). The dough is ready when it springs back when you press it with your finger. (At this stage, you can add other flavourings - see 'Goes well with', right).
• Tip dough onto a floured surface, knead to remove air bubbles. Shape into a round, place on an oiled baking sheet and slash top with sharp knife. Cover and rise for 30 mins. Heat oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 8. Bake for 30-35 mins until browned and crisp.

ULTRA-MOIST HEALTHY BANANA BREAD (MADE WITH OLIVE OIL)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Use about 2 tablespoons of the olive oil to generously grease the bottom and sides of a loaf pan. It's OK if some pools at the bottom.
• In a large bowl, mix the remaining olive oil (just under 1/2 cup) with the brown sugar (1/2 cup).
• Add the eggs and mix for about 1 minute.
• Add the bananas (see notes) and mix together.
• Stir in the baking soda, kosher salt, cinnamon, and vanilla extract (1 teaspoon of each).
• Stir in the whole wheat flour (1/2 cup) and the all-purpose flour (1 cup) until just incorporated and no dry spots remain.
• Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
• Allow to cool in pan for at least 10 minutes. It should pop right out if you flip the pan upside-down, but if you need to give it a boost you can run a knife along the sides before flipping it over.
• Cut the banana bread into 10 slices. I recommend serving it warm with salted butter spread on top.

MOIST AND DELICIOUS BANANA BREAD

• Combine well for 2-3 minutes.
• Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake in a preheated 325 degree F oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes.

SPICED KETO BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan with olive oil. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on all sides.
• In a medium bowl, whisk to combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, and cloves.
• Place bananas in a large bowl. Mash until smooth with a fork or potato masher. Add olive oil, eggs, vanilla, and honey or other sweetener and mix to combine. Add dry ingredients and stir until incorporated. Add walnuts and coconut flakes and fold to combine. Transfer to prepared loaf pan and smooth top.
• Bake until a toothpick comes out clean and bread is lightly golden, about 40 minutes. Lift parchment to remove from pan and let cool on a rack. Slice and serve.

OLIVE OIL BANANA BREAD WITH ALMOND FLOUR

Steps:

• Place dates in a bowl and cover with hot water; soak until soft, about 20 minutes.
• In the meantime, combine ground almonds, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; stir until combined. Mash 5 bananas in a large bowl; add remaining cinnamon and nutmeg. Reserve remaining banana.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
• Mix olive oil into the bowl with the bananas using an electric mixer until fully incorporated. Beat in egg yolks one at a time. Add vanilla extract and continue whisking until combined.
• Check dates for softness. Drain and transfer to a food processor; pulse until a paste forms. Add paste to banana mixture until fully incorporated.
• Beat egg whites in a bowl until they form soft peaks. Fold into the bowl with the banana batter. Slice remaining banana into coins and fold in. Transfer batter to the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool 30 minutes before removing from pan and slicing.
