Banana Bread

This truly is a quick and easy banana bread. It’s a great way to use up your ripe bananas and provide a nutritious treat at the same time.

Ingredients

    Yield:

    • 1¾ cups (245 g) Pamela's All-Purpose Flour
    • 1½ teaspoons salt
    • 2½ teaspoons baking powder
    • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
    • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
    • 2 eggs, large
    • 2 tablespoons oil
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla
    • 1¼ cups sugar
    • 1½ cups mashed very ripe banana (about 4 large bananas)
    • ¾ cup chopped nuts (optional)
Directions

    Preheat oven to 350° with rack in the middle of oven. Prepare an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan by spraying with nonstick cooking spray.

    In a medium bowl, whisk together All-Purpose Flour Artisan Blend, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. In the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat eggs, oil, and vanilla until frothy. Add sugar and beat to incorporate, then add bananas and nuts and mix well. Slowly add flour mixture and mix until well combined.

    Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 68 to 78 minutes, until the sides of the loaf just start to pull away from the pan, bread springs back when gently touched, and toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Allow to rest in the pan for at least 15 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

    NOTE: Frozen bananas may be used; simply thaw and mash.

Very nice..

I added 4 oz of apple sauce and used 1/2 sugar 1/2 Stevia.. Came out very moist.. The edges got pretty dark and so next time i'll cover them half way through.

Best GF recipe I've made so far.

I bake a ton. Baking GF can be a challenge. So far this is the best recipe I've found regarding texture, rise and taste. I like nutmeg, but do feel that it's a bit heavy and will reduce to a half tsp. next time. I have a convection oven and use a n oven thermometer to check my temperature. If you aren't already doing this, it's very important to ensure correct temperatures. You would be surprised how much an oven temp. can be off. I baked at 350 in a convection oven for 60 mins and it was perfect.

Called Mom for The Secret Recipe

Couldn’t stop thinking about banana bread after moving out. Its been 5 years and I haven’t been able to find anything close. I broke down, swallowed my pride and asked for the secret recipe. She sent me this link and I could jump for joy.

watch your bake time

Love the taste and texture of this banana bread. My suggestion is to watch the bake time. 68 -78 mins is suggested in the recipe, but I have made this recipe 4 times in 2 different gas ovens and the bread is finished at 48 -50 mins. Just be careful.

This is for my name

I baked this and it worked really well! I have tried other banana bread recipes and they come out very gummy and gross. This was nice and does take the full amount of time to bake. My son thought it was burning (the crust gets dark brown, not black though) but it was not burnt, it's cooked all the way through and nice texture (yay no more gummy breads!).
