Lindas Banana Bread Recipes

BEST BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prick the bananas with a fork and place on a baking sheet, still in their peel. Roast for 18 to 22 minutes or until the skins are black. Remove the bananas from the oven and let cool. Then peel the bananas and mash the pulp. Stir in the buttermilk.
• Spray 2 9" x 5" loaf pans with nonstick baking spray containing flour and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the butter with 3/4 cup granulated sugar and brown sugar and beat well.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Beat in the vanilla.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture alternately with the banana mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
• Soon the batter into the prepared pans and sprinkle with the 1/4 cup granulated sugar, using 2 tablespoons for each loaf.
• Bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove the bread from the pans and let cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
