Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 bananas (, about 1 1/3 cups, mashed)
1 large egg
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
3 Tablespoons light brown sugar
2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour ((white or white-whole wheat))
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter (, melted (or substitute applesauce))

Steps:

  • Grease a standard 9x5'' loaf pan (I also like to line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper to make sure the loaf doesn't stick).
  • Mash bananas in a mixing bowl. Add egg, vanilla, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon and stir well to combine.
  • In a separate small bowl stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to banana mixture and stir to combine.
  • Gently stir in melted butter. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool in the pan for 5-10 few minutes before inverting onto a wire cooling rack.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup (75 grams) melted coconut oil or extra-virgin olive oil or high quality vegetable oil*
1/2 cup honey (168 grams) or maple syrup (155 grams)
2 eggs
1 cup (225 grams) mashed ripe bananas (about 2 1/2 medium or 2 large bananas)
1/4 cup (56 grams) milk of choice or water
1 teaspoon baking soda (NOT baking powder; they aren't the same!)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more to swirl on top
1 3/4 cups (220 grams) white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour**
Totally optional: 1/2 cup mix-ins like chopped walnuts or pecans, chocolate chips, raisins, chopped dried fruit, fresh banana slices...

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, beat the oil and honey together with a whisk. Add the eggs and beat well, then whisk in the mashed bananas and milk. (If your coconut oil solidifies on contact with cold ingredients, simply let the bowl rest in a warm place for a few minutes, like on top of your stove, or warm it for about 10 seconds in the microwave.)
  • Add the baking soda, vanilla, salt and cinnamon, and whisk to blend. Lastly, switch to a big spoon and stir in the flour, just until combined. Some lumps are ok! If you're adding any additional mix-ins, gently fold them in now.
  • Pour the batter into your greased loaf pan and sprinkle lightly with cinnamon. If you'd like a pretty swirled effect, run the tip of a knife across the batter in a zig-zag pattern.
  • Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (typically, if I haven't added any mix-ins, my bread is done at 55 minutes; if I have added mix-ins, it needs closer to 60 minutes). Let the bread cool in the loaf pan for at least 10 minutes. You may need to run a butter knife around the edges to loosen the bread from the pan. Carefully transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool before slicing.

Categories     Dessert     Snack

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups mashed overripe bananas (about 11 ounces or 3 large)
1 large egg
1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt (I used nonfat. OK to substitute vanilla, though the bread will be a bit sweeter.)
2 tablespoons canola oil ( or melted cooled coconut oil*)
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips ( or chopped dark chocolate (optional))

Steps:

  • Place the rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
  • Mash the bananas in the bottom of a large bowl until mostly smooth.
  • Whisk in the egg, then the yogurt and oil.
  • Whisk in the brown sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla. Sprinkle the baking soda, cinnamon, and salt over the top, then stir until combined.
  • Gently stir in the flour until barely combined, then fold in any mix-ins.
  • Scrape the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Check at the 35-minute mark and tent with foil if the bread is browning too quickly at the corners. Place the pan on a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes. Remove from pan and place on rack to finish cooling completely (for neat slicing), or enjoy warm and don't worry if the slices are messy.

HEALTHIER BANANA BANANA BREAD

This recipe was really yummy to start with but I was looking for something a little healthier so I replaced some butter with non-fat yogurt and I eliminated the salt. It is super moist and tastes great.

A not too sweet, super-moist, deep golden brown, dense banana bread with a crispy sugary crust right out of the oven. It is enjoyed at our home hot with butter, and eaten like cake with a fork.

YUMMY HEALTHY BANANA BREAD



Yummy Healthy Banana Bread image

I made this recipe twice in 2 days as my friends and family all enjoyed it so much. It makes a moist, chewy yet soft bread/ cake with lots of banana flavour but not too sweet which suits my taste better. No eggs, no butter, no oil, quick and easy.

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup sweetened applesauce
1/2 cup white sugar
4 very ripe bananas, mashed
1 1/2 cups plain flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 teaspoon baking soda
cinnamon and brown sugar (for sprinkling)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven at 160 deg C (325 F). Grease 7X7" tin or a 9X5" bread tin. 7x7" cooks faster.
  • Mix applesauce and sugar in a bowl. If using unsweetened applesauce, add about 2 tablespoons of sugar extra.
  • Add bananas and mix. Add flour, salt, vanilla essence and baking soda. Mix quickly but thoroughly.
  • Pour into tin. Sprinkle with some brown sugar and cinnamon powder. Put into oven immediately.
  • Bake till a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean (A little mashed banana on the knife is ok as there's so much fruit. If in doubt, taste to see it doesn't taste of raw flour).
  • Ovens vary so always check about 5mins before when you think it will be ready. About 50mins in a fan-assisted oven for 7X7" tin.
