Banana Crunch Bread Recipes

CINNAMON CRUNCH BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment or wax paper, leaving enough paper hanging over the sides to lift the cake out after baking. (This will prevent the topping from breaking when removing the bread from the pan.)
• Prepare the batter: In a medium bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, using a sturdy whisk, beat together oil, eggs and honey until smooth. Stir in bananas and warm water. Add dry ingredients to egg-oil mixture and stir to blend. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Make the topping: In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, granulated sugar and cinnamon, using your fingers to break up any lumps. Sprinkle evenly over batter.
• Bake until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour, checking after 50 minutes. If topping shows signs of burning, reduce heat to 325 degrees.
• Remove to a rack and let cool in pan for 30 minutes. Use the edges of the paper to lift the cake up and out. Place on a rack (leave the paper on) and let cool before slicing and serving.

BANANA CRUNCH MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line 18 large muffin cups with paper liners. Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the melted butter and blend. Combine the eggs, milk, vanilla, and mashed bananas, and add them to the flour-and-butter mixture. Scrape the bowl and blend well. Don't overmix.
• Fold the diced bananas, walnuts, granola, and coconut into the batter. Spoon the batter into the paper liners, filling each 1 to the top. Top each muffin with dried banana chips, granola, or coconut, if desired. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the tops are brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool slightly, remove from the pan, and serve.

[I generally double this recipe, and it freezes very well.] >From: Billy Hatcher From: Bread-Bakers Archives: ftp.best.com/pub/reggie/archives/bread/recipe NOTES : The following is the best (and most forgiving) banana bread recipe Ive come across. Dont recall where I got the original, but have modified it quite a bit, so it is pretty much my own. I use it if I happen to have some grossly over ripe bananas on hand, and if not, try to go to a grocery which has a mark down produce section for them. The key to really good banana flavor is using very, very ripe bananas. If it is almost black, mushy and oozing juice, it is perfect for the bread. Enjoy!
