How to make banana bread!šŸŒ

I had some ripe bananas to use up so I made some banana bread, and wanted to share with the Lemon8 community!

Here’s the recipe:

2 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup unsalted butter (dont add salt if using salted butter)

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/3 mashed bananas (3-4 bananas)

1/2 cup add ins (chocolate chips, blueberries, pecans, walnuts, streusel, cream cheese, the list goes on!)

... Read moreBanana bread is a classic and beloved treat, often enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack. The great thing about this recipe is its flexibility – you can easily customize it by incorporating different add-ins. For a chocolate twist, consider adding chocolate chips or swapping the bananas for applesauce for a lighter version. The key to achieving the perfect texture is to ensure your bananas are well-ripened. Brown spots on the peel indicate sweetness and moisture, which are crucial for a moist banana bread. Once your batter is combined, pour it into a greased 8x4-inch loaf pan, ensuring that the mixture is smoothed out evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 45-55 minutes, and use the toothpick test to check for doneness. Insert a toothpick in the center, and if it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, your banana bread is ready! Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Serve it warm or at room temperature, and enjoy it plain or slathered with butter. For an added twist, try spreading some cream cheese on top or pairing it with a warm cup of coffee. This versatile recipe will surely become a family favorite!
