When I make this delicious banana nut bread my whole family gets excited! The thing that I love about this recipe is that it not only does it taste great but it is easy to make. If you were to ask my family what their favorite thing I bake this is the winner. In this article I am going to give you the recipe and instructions I use to make this bread.
Here is what you need:
* 3/4 cup butter
* 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
* 1/3 cup of brown sugar
* 4 medium size brown bananas
* 2 eggs, well beaten
* 1 teaspoon vanilla
* 2 cups sifted flour
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 3/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 cup buttermilk
* 3/4 cup chopped nuts
Here is how to make it:
Cream butter and both sugars thoroughly. Blend in mashed bananas, eggs and vanilla. Next, sift your flour, soda and salt together. Add to banana mixture alternately with buttermilk. Make sure to mix thoroughly after each addition. Add nuts and mix real well. Pour batter into greased and floured loaf pan. Bake at 325 for 1 1/4 hours or until well done. I take a tooth pick and insert it in the center of the loaf to see if it is ready.
I have found that using really brown bananas make the bread sweeter. I also use the brown sugar along with the granulated sugar because it also makes the bread sweeter.
I make this for gifts at holidays or for special occasions. I have found that this freezes well. I always double my recipe and freeze part of it.
Making banana nut bread is so simple with this recipe. Hopefully you will love it as much as my family does!
