Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 to 4 ripe bananas (mashed should be about 1 ¼ cups (anywhere from 1 to 1 ½ cups will work))
3/4 cup granulated sugar (can use a combination of brown sugar and granulated sugar (see post))
2 large eggs
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
1/3 cup sour cream (plain Greek yogurt can be used instead)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray with nonstick cooking spray or grease and flour the bottom and sides of an 8½ x 4½ inch loaf pan. (Can also butter pan and sprinkle with sugar or a combination of sugar and cinnamon.) Set aside.
  • Whisk together flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Mash bananas in a large bowl using a potato masher, fork, or a mixer. There can be some small chunks remaining, it doesn't have to be completely smooth.
  • Whisk in sugar, eggs, melted butter, sour cream and vanilla extract.
  • Add flour mixture and stir in gently just until combined. Transfer to the prepared loaf pan and use the spatula to smooth the top.
  • Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. If bread starts to get too brown on top, tent with foil for the last 10 minutes.
  • Let bread cool on cooling rack in loaf pan for 15 to 20 minutes. Invert the loaf pan and carefully remove banana bread. Let bread continue to cool on the rack for another hour or more. Slice and serve.

THE BEST BANANA BREAD



The Best Banana Bread image

We have a lot of requirements when it comes to banana bread and we finally created a recipe that ticks all the boxes. It's moist, tender, a little tangy and perfectly sweet-all around our favorite one. The best part is that it's even better the next day (if it lasts that long). Try toasting the bread and slathering with a little salted butter. We're pretty sure you'll never need another banana bread recipe.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup melted unsalted butter or vegetable oil, plus more for greasing pan
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 cup toasted pecans, chopped
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Fine salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup buttermilk, sour cream or yogurt
1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 soft, very ripe, darkly speckled medium bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter one 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
  • Whisk together the flour, pecans, granulated sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk together the eggs, melted butter, buttermilk, brown sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl; stir in the mashed bananas. Fold the banana mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps).
  • Pour the batter into the buttered pan and lightly tap the pan on the counter to evenly distribute the batter. Bake until browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out completely clean, about 1 hour. Let the bread cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.

MY FAVORITE BANANA BREAD



My Favorite Banana Bread image

With its super-moist texture, buttery banana and brown sugar flavors, and incredibly soft crumb, this is the best ever banana bread recipe. You'll need 4 ripe bananas to begin.

Provided by Sally

Categories     Bread

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup (1 stick or 115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
3/4 cup (150g) packed light or dark brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/3 cup (80g) plain yogurt or sour cream, at room temperature (I use Greek yogurt)
2 cups (460g) mashed bananas (about 4 large ripe bananas)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
optional: 3/4 cup (100g) chopped pecans or walnuts

Steps:

  • Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or coat with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
  • Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter and brown sugar together on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. On medium speed, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the yogurt, mashed bananas, and vanilla extract on medium speed until combined. With the mixer running on low speed, slowly beat the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until no flour pockets remain. Do not overmix. Fold in the nuts, if using.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 60-65 minutes. Loosely cover the bread with aluminum foil after 30 minutes to help prevent the top and sides from getting too brown. A toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf will come out clean when the bread is done. Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool completely in the pan set on a wire rack.
  • Cover and store banana bread at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Banana bread tastes best on day 2 after the flavors have settled together. See post above for freezing instructions.
