SOUTHERN STYLE BANANA BREAD

This is an adaptation of a recipe I saw on a cooking show, tweaked to perfection. The recipe doesn't contain nuts, but they can be added to taste. The original recipe called for a caramel sauce and meringue, but I find that the tweaked recipe is delicious without them. I generally use a little less than 2 cups of flour when making this bread for density.

When life gives you brown bananas, make banana bread! This recipe is moist, packed with flavour and not too sweet.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180C.
  • Peel & mash the bananas (I use a potato masher - you'll see that they have a surprising amount of liquid in them!)
  • Chop the walnuts (I like to chop half of them finely, the other half quite "chunky").
  • Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition.
  • Sift all the dry ingredients together; add to creamed mixture.
  • Stir in the mashed bananas and chopped nuts.
  • Pour the dough into 2 well-greased loaf pans (or how about 1 loaf and 12 muffins?); for about 1 hour 15min (fan assisted) or 1 hour 45min (non fan-assisted), until a toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean.
