THE BEST BANANA BREAD



The Best Banana Bread image

We have a lot of requirements when it comes to banana bread and we finally created a recipe that ticks all the boxes. It's moist, tender, a little tangy and perfectly sweet-all around our favorite one. The best part is that it's even better the next day (if it lasts that long). Try toasting the bread and slathering with a little salted butter. We're pretty sure you'll never need another banana bread recipe.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup melted unsalted butter or vegetable oil, plus more for greasing pan
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 cup toasted pecans, chopped
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Fine salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup buttermilk, sour cream or yogurt
1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 soft, very ripe, darkly speckled medium bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter one 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
  • Whisk together the flour, pecans, granulated sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk together the eggs, melted butter, buttermilk, brown sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl; stir in the mashed bananas. Fold the banana mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps).
  • Pour the batter into the buttered pan and lightly tap the pan on the counter to evenly distribute the batter. Bake until browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out completely clean, about 1 hour. Let the bread cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.

BEST EVER BANANA BREAD



Best Ever Banana Bread image

I created this quick bread recipe a few years back and it always receives rave reviews when I share it. However, often times my family eats it so fast that there is none left to share! The secret ingredients that make it different than most other banana breads are the addition of the peach flavored yogurt and the cinnamon sugar spinkled on top. To make it "Better For You Banana Bread," substitute 1/2 cup applesauce for 1/2 cup of the vegetable oil.

I have been testing and trying banana bread recipes for the past couple of years trying to find "the best" one for my recipe collection. Recently, I noticed this recipe on a bag of flour that I purchased. The recipe on the bag carried the name "Best Ever Banana Bread". I figured I had to try it. I did and now I will look no further. This is the one makes it into my recipe book. It is moist and full of flavor. It's the perfect banana bread. Thank you Gold Medal Flour.

THE BEST BANANA BREAD (NO KIDDING!)



The Best Banana Bread (No Kidding!) image

When my grandmother died about thirty years ago she left behind a yellowed, brittle, spotted and splotched card with a handwritten recipe for The Best Banana Bread in the World. I have literally grown up on this stuff, and verily, verily say unto you--it is wonderful. Comfort food in the extreme, it's good hot, it's good cold, and it's especially good two days old! Age only increases its moistness, and the top gets all glossy and mmmm.... Impossible to describe. So, do you want to make it now? I'll spare you the trouble of deciphering my grandmother's outdated methods, and transcribe it myself. Here it is, what you've been waiting for all your life:

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 loaf, 2-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 bananas (The riper the better, I usually freeze our bananas when they start to brown, then once a few have ac)
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 cups flour (I love this with whole wheat. White is OK, but is more cake-ey and less bread-ey.)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Thoroughly mash bananas. (If they've been frozen, just zap them in the microwave; they will look absolutely disgusting but it's worth it.)
  • Combine dry ingredients in one bowl, mix well with a wire whisk (or sifter, if your heart so desires).
  • Whisk the eggs lightly in a separate bowl, add oil and vanilla, then when the oven is finished preheating add the wet to the dry.
  • Pour into a loaf pan that has been generously greased with vegetable shortening.
  • Bake for 60 minutes (it can take 15-20 minutes longer than this) or until a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean. You don't want your bread to be too dry (it's supposed to be lovely and moist), so try to get it out just when the tester comes out clean, don't leave it in the oven too long after that.

THE BEST BANANA BREAD



The Best Banana Bread image

This is one of the recipes I am known for. Super moist and super yummy. I have tried many over the years and always come back to this. I often give it as a gift around the holidays. Just may be the last banana bread recipe you ever try! Can also make 3 mini-loaves

Provided by Tracy H.

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h25m

Yield 1-2 loaves, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 bananas, blackened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup mini chocolate chip

Steps:

  • Cream butter and sugar (by hand or mixer).
  • Mash bananas and add by hand to creamed mixture.
  • By hand add eggs, vanilla, baking soda, flour and salt.
  • Gently stir in buttermilk and chocolate chips.
  • Pour into a greased loaf pan.
  • Bake at 350°F for 1 1/4 hour or until it tests done with a toothpick.
  • **I find that coarsely mashing bananas is best and make sure they are over ripe for best flavor.
  • I also find that doing the majority of the mixing by hand makes for better texture in the end.
  • **Even though the recipe says it makes 1 loaf, I usually use 2 loaf pans or 3 mini loaf pans because it seems to yield a moister bread.
  • Just adjust baking time down.
  • **if you do not have buttermilk you can put 1 teaspoons vinegar into a 1/2 cup measuring cup and fill to top with milk.
  • Let rest 5 minutes before adding to recipe.
  • **This freezes well.
