Banana Bread
Recipe Care of A Hasty Life.com
(Picture taken this morning... see how it looks like only about half a loaf is left... well there is only half left because J and I could not stop munching on it last night it was that good!)
Serving size: 10 pieces
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2T butter, softened
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 cup ripe bananas, mashed (about 3 small)
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (this was not in the original recipe but I had to add it because what is banana bread without the nuts!)
Preparation:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened butter and sugar with a mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes. Add the egg and applesauce and beat another 1-2 minutes. Fold in the bananas with a spoon or spatula.
3. In a small bowl mix together the flours, baking soda and salt
4. Gently mix in with a spoon or spatula the flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time and only mix until just combined, do not over mix. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
5. Coat a loaf pan with non stick cooking spray and pour the batter into the loaf pan.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
7. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 5 minutes then let it cool on a wire rack
