Banana Bread
Breakfast item and every kid's go to snack.
Equipment
- I used a Bundt pan instead of a normal bread mold. The decorative edges and the top came out very attractive and more apetizing, Although, I wasnt sure if it will work well for banana bread ,but I was very happy with the result.
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups flour All-purpose
- 1 1/4 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 Cup sugar
- 1/3 Cup shortening
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 4 medium bananas ripe
- 1/2 cup walnuts chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl cream sugar and shortening with an electric beater, or by hand held beater, until smooth.
- Add 1 egg at a time and beat until smooth. Add milk and mix well.
- Add half of the flour and half of the mashed bananas and continue to mix well before adding rest of the flour and banana. Continue to mix.
- When all the ingredients are well combined, add finely chopped walnuts and fold the batter to spread the nuts evenly throughout the mixture.
- Grease, and flour a tube pan and pour the batter in it and smooth it out by tapping the pan gently on the counter.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 55 minutes or until an inserted knife comes out clean.
