CRANBERRY BANANA TEA LOAF



Cranberry Banana Tea Loaf image

This delicious and moist banana bread will make a wonderful gift at the holidays ... if you don't eat it all first. This bread is not overly sweet. We loved the cranberry/banana combination. The tart cranberries add a pop of flavor you don't always get with banana bread. Plus, your kitchen smells wonderful while this bakes.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3/4 c all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 c shortening
2/3 c white sugar
2 eggs
1 c mashed banana
1 c whole berry cranberry sauce
1/2 c nuts, chopped (I used walnuts, but, your choice)

Steps:

  • 1. Set oven at 350 degrees. Combine the first 4 ingredients together in a bowl. Mix well. Set aside.
  • 2. Cream shortening and sugar in a bowl. Add the two eggs and mix well. Alternately, fold in the dry ingredients, banana, and cranberries, ending with cranberries. Last, fold in the nuts.
  • 3. Bake in a prepared loaf pan for 1 hour. Don't overbake.
  • 4. I can hardly wait to get it out of the pan before cutting into it and then slathering it with butter! It cuts cleaner and thinner if you can wait until it is completely cool.

Use up the leftover cranberries, freeze the loaf for later. I often make half of this into a loaf and half into small muffins.
