WHOLE WHEAT BUTTERY BANANA BREAD

Whole wheat banana bread is easy to make, yet delicious and healthy. It also freezes well. I like using all whole wheat flour and using 3 smaller loaf pans so that the bread bakes more evenly.

WHOLE WHEAT BANANA BREAD

I actually abandoned my "family" banana bread in favor of this one... It's more a like a cake than a bread. I have increased the bananas from the original recipe, and I prefer to omit the nuts. I like mine warm with butter on top. Yummy!

Time 1h25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, slightly beaten
3 medium bananas, preferably frozen, then defrosted (1-2 cups mashed)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup hot water
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Melt butter.
  • Put the butter, sugar, bananas and eggs in a blender. Blend until nice and smooth.
  • Now transfer to a mixing bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, stir together flours, salt, and baking soda.
  • Add dry ingredients to banana mixture alternately with hot water.
  • Stir in chopped nuts.
  • Cut a piece of waxed or parchment paper the size of the bottom of your loaf pan.
  • (This helps the loaf come out in one piece while still warm).
  • Put the paper in the loaf pan and spray the pan well with non-stick spray.
  • Scoop the batter into the pan.
  • Bake in a preheated 325 degree F oven for one hour and 10 minutes.
  • Test with a cake tester to make to make sure it's done.
  • Sometimes it takes a little bit longer.
  • If the top gets too brown, cover it with a piece of aluminum foil so it doesn't get too much darker.
