Banana Bread Recipe | Epicurious.com image

We love banana bread, but not for days on end. This small loaf is perfect for a treat lasting a day or two. The paper towels prevent the natural build-up of steam from potentially dripping on the loaf and making the bread soggy.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup, plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup light or dark brown sugar
1 large egg yolk
1/2 cup mashed banana
1 tablespoon milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Place a cookie cutter, Mason jar ring, or a ring made from
  • aluminum foil inside the slow cooker. Butter a
  • inch mini loaf pan and set aside.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a small
  • bowl. Add oil, brown sugar, egg yolk, banana, milk, and
  • vanilla, stirring just until flour mixture is incorporated. Fold
  • in nuts.
  • Scrape batter into prepared loaf pan. Transfer loaf pan to
  • sit on top of ring in slow cooker.
  • Place paper towels, still attached together, folded as
  • necessary, over the top of the slow cooker. Cover and
  • cook on High for 2 hours. When a toothpick inserted in the
  • middle of the loaf comes out clean, the bread is cooked. If
  • it does not emerge clean, continue cooking an additional 30
  • minutes.
  • Carefully remove the loaf pan from the slow cooker. Run a
  • knife around the inside of the loaf pan and turn the loaf out
  • onto a rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.
