BANANA BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray with nonstick cooking spray or grease and flour the bottom and sides of an 8½ x 4½ inch loaf pan. (Can also butter pan and sprinkle with sugar or a combination of sugar and cinnamon.) Set aside.
• Whisk together flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Mash bananas in a large bowl using a potato masher, fork, or a mixer. There can be some small chunks remaining, it doesn't have to be completely smooth.
• Whisk in sugar, eggs, melted butter, sour cream and vanilla extract.
• Add flour mixture and stir in gently just until combined. Transfer to the prepared loaf pan and use the spatula to smooth the top.
• Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. If bread starts to get too brown on top, tent with foil for the last 10 minutes.
• Let bread cool on cooling rack in loaf pan for 15 to 20 minutes. Invert the loaf pan and carefully remove banana bread. Let bread continue to cool on the rack for another hour or more. Slice and serve.

• **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.

THE BEST BANANA BREAD (NO KIDDING!)

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.
