Banana Bread Sticks Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 9 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pan.
• Cream the sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• In a small bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Mix in the milk and cinnamon. In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Add the banana mixture to the creamed mixture and stir until combined. Add dry ingredients, mixing just until flour disappears.
• Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Set aside to cool on a rack for 15 minutes. Remove bread from pan, invert onto rack and cool completely before slicing.
• Spread slices with honey or serve with ice cream.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine the peanut butter, honey, brown sugar and milk; cook until heated through, stirring occasionally., Peel bananas and cut in half widthwise; insert a Popsicle stick into one end of each banana half. Spoon peanut butter mixture over bananas to coat completely. Sprinkle with granola. Serve immediately or place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet and freeze.

Steps:

• Dissolve 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar and yeast in 1/2 cup warm water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
• Beat flour, oil, egg, salt, remaining sugar, and remaining warm water into yeast mixture until smooth, adding more flour if needed to form a soft dough. Turn dough onto a floured work surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to cover completely with oil. Cover bowl with a damp towel and place in a warm area until dough is doubled in size, about 40 minutes.
• Grease a baking sheet.
• Punch dough down and turn onto a floured work surface. Divide dough into 18 pieces and shape each into a 6-inch rope. Arrange dough pieces on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart; cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size, about 25 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Remove cover from dough.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Whisk butter and garlic salt together in a bowl; brush over each breadstick. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over each.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Butter and line a 900g loaf tin with a strip of baking parchment.
• Beat the butter and both sugars in a bowl for 5 mins with an electric whisk until really fluffy. Whisk the eggs, banana and yogurt in a separate bowl until mostly smooth, then whisk this into the butter and sugar mixture. Fold in the flour and baking powder until just combined, then fold in the dates and nuts. Spoon into the tin, smooth over the top and bake for 1 hr-1 hr 15 mins until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins, then lift out using the strip of parchment. You can serve it warm now, or leave to cool completely on a wire rack. Will keep for four days in an airtight container.
• Meanwhile, make the toffee sauce. Put the sugar in a heavy-based frying pan and melt over a medium-low heat until light golden brown and liquid - don't stir, just tilt the pan to melt the sugar. Carefully whisk in the butter until smooth, then pour in the cream slowly and bring to a bubble. Mix until the sauce is smooth and shiny. Pour into a heatproof bowl, cover and leave to cool to room temperature.
• For the brittle, put the sugar in a frying pan with 2 tbsp water over a medium heat, stir briefly, then simmer for 10 mins until the caramel turns amber. Don't stir after the initial mix, just tilt the pan to get an even deep golden colour.
• Meanwhile, line a baking tray with baking parchment. Carefully stir the nuts, banana chips and salt into the caramel, until well coated, then pour onto the tray. Tip the tray (or use a spoon) to make sure the nuts are in a single layer - or they will be harder to separate later. Leave to cool completely before breaking the brittle into shards.
• Stir the toffee sauce to loosen if it's become stiff, or warm for a few seconds in the microwave (add a splash more cream if you need to), then drizzle over the cake so it drips down the sides. Top with the shards of brittle. Will keep for two days in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Lightly grease one large baking sheet.
• Divide each roll in half. Roll dough between hands to make a 4-inch long stick. Place sticks on the prepared baking sheet. Brush lightly with egg white or melted butter or margarine. Sprinkle with garlic salt. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese or sesame seeds. Cover and allow to rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Do not overbake as these burn easily on the bottom.

Steps:

• Combine 1-1/2 cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt. In a small saucepan, heat milk, 1/4 cup water and butter to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat on medium speed just until moistened. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough., Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes., Punch down dough. Pinch off golf ball-sized pieces. On a lightly floured surface, shape each into a 6-in. rope. Place on greased baking sheets 1 in. apart. Cover and let rise for 15 minutes., Preheat oven to 400°. Beat egg white and remaining water; brush over breadsticks. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake until golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients until smooth and pour into a greased loaf pan.
• Bake for 1 hour at 350.
• Cool and remove from pan.
• Cut into sticks the size of your fingers and put on a cookies sheet and bake for 1 more hour at 150, or until the sticks are stiff.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine ingredients and stir only until smooth. Pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake in oven for about 1 hour or until firmly set.
• Cool, remove from pan, and cut into sticks. Spread sticks out on a cookie sheet and bake at 150 degrees F for 1 hour or longer until the sticks are hard and crunchy. Store in a tightly covered container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F If you've decided to use them, roast your nuts for 7-10 minutes. Remove and cool.
• Grease two medium loaf pans.
• Mash the bananas and set aside.
• Chop the nuts (I used macadamia nuts), set aside.
• Put the flour, baking powder and baking soda in your food processor and mix to incorporate. Put in a large bowl.
• Put the brown sugar and oil in the bowl of the food processor and combine. Add the eggs or egg replacer. Process until combined. Add the vanilla and give it a couple more pulses. Add the mashed banana.
• Pulse once to combine.
• Add the chopped nuts to the flour mixture and mix them to coat.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry until just combined. Don't over mix.
• Divide between the two loaf pans.
• Bake for 1 hour or until the loaves are done.
• I found 40 minutes was sufficient, but it may vary for different ovens. I used a wooden kabob stick to test my loaves. Once the stick came out clean I removed the loaves from the oven.
• Turn the stove temperature down to 200°F.
• Cool the banana bread in the loaf pans for about 15 minutes then turn them out onto metal racks and cool.
• Make sure they are cold before you cut them as they will fall apart.
• Using a serrated knife, cut each loaf in about 1 inch slices, then cut the slices in half so they resemble a biscotti cookie.
• I placed them cut side down on a metal cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake for at least another hour. I found that more time is needed. Be patient it might take a while.
• The slices should be hard and crunchy when finished. Store in a tightly covered container. I'm going to glaze these with chocolate. :0).

Steps:

• Peel the bananas and slice off the tops and bottoms to create a straighter middle section. Save ends for later.
• Insert a popsicle stick into the middle of each banana and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Freeze the bananas until solid, about 1 hour.
• In a medium bowl, mash the banana ends with a fork until smooth.
• Add the sugar, vanilla, oil, and egg. Mix until combined.
• Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix again until smooth.
• In a large pot, heat the oil to 325°F (170°C). Place a wire rack inside a baking sheet and line with paper towels.
• Pour the banana bread batter into a tall glass.
• When the oil is hot, dip one of the frozen bananas into the batter until completely covered. Keep the rest of the bananas frozen until ready to fry.
• Fry the bananas, one at a time, until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the fried bananas to the towel-lined rack as they are done.
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with melted chocolate and caramel sauce for dipping.
• Enjoy!
