Starbucks Banana Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325. Grease a 9x5x3 loaf pan and dust with flour.
• Blend the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
• Mix the egg, sugar, and vegetable oil until combined.
• Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and when blended, add the buttermilk, vanilla, and mashed bananas; mix well.
• Fold 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts and pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
• Top the batter with remaining 1/3 cup of walnuts.
• Bake for 45-60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a medium size bowl combine all dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt), stir together to combine. In another medium size bowl combine margarine and sugar, with a mixer cream the margarine and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add in mashed bananas and eggs, and mix well. Add 1/2 of the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mix until the flour is just mixed in, then add in the remaining flour and 1/2 cup walnuts, blend together until everything is mixed together. Do not overstir.
• Pour batter into a greased 8×4 inch loaf pan. Then top the batter with the remaining chopped walnuts. Bake at 350 degrees for 55 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes on a wire wrack.
• While Starbucks does not make their banana bread with butter, I think this comes out more rich this way. I also like to add in a sprinkle or two of cinnamon and sugar into this, again, not in their recipe, it does add that little something extra.
