Extreme Banana Nut Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9 1/2 by 5 1/2-inch loaf pan.
• In a large mixing bowl, sift flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Reserve.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, food processor, or blender, add eggs, butter, buttermilk, lemon juice, bananas, sugar, and salt.
• Mix or blend until smooth. Slowly add dry ingredients. Fold in nuts. Pour batter into pan and bake 1 hour and 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
• Sift the flour, salt and baking soda into a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the butter or margarine and sugar until smooth. Stir in the bananas, eggs, and walnuts until well blended. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, and stir just until blended. Divide the batter evenly between the two loaf pans.
• Bake for 60 to 70 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted into the crown of the loaf comes out clean. Let the loaves cool in the pans for at least 5 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack, and cool completely. Wrap in aluminum foil to keep in the moisture. Ideally, refrigerate the loaves for 2 hours or more before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Prep loaf pan - grease with spray, shortening or butter.
• Prepare streusel topping: Blend dry ingredients together. Add almond extract, then cut in butter until mixture is soft and crumbly. Set aside.
• Prepare bread batter: In large bowl combine 1 cup of the flour, the sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add mashed banana, almond extract, butter or shortening and milk. Mix with spoon until well blended. Add eggs, remaining flour and oats. Beat until blended. Add apples, walnuts and blueberries and fold batter lightly to distribute. (Be careful not to break berries.).
• Pour half of batter into prepared loaf pan. Break up and crumble 2 tablespoons of streusel mixture over top, then add remaining batter to pan. Cover with remaining streusel.
• Bake in 350 degree oven for 55-65 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
• Makes 1 loaf (16 servings) [Oh, who're we kidding: it makes 1 big serving...].
• The banana bread is good warm or cold, but do yourself a favor and have a slice about 10 minutes after it comes out of the oven!

Steps:

• Cream butter & sugar. Add vanilla & eggs. Combine dry ingredients, add alternately with bananas & milk. Add nuts if desired. Grease & flour 1 bread pan (2-3 smaller pans) or pour into muffin cups. For loaf bake at 350 for 45-60 minute Muffins 350 for 20-25min. Enjoy!
• *Note- I usually use a smaller bread pan to make the 2 loaves, or use a larger one and just make 1 big loaf, but it will need to bake longer. I adjusted the time because people had been saying it was over baking, now people are saying it's under baked. I would use the old fashion test of a tooth pick at 45 min, then at 1 hour -- up to 1 hour & 30 min if needed. Hope that helps!
