Directions
Prize Winning Banana Nut Bread,I have won ribbons with this recipe which I received from my grandmother. The only thing I do that is different from my grandmothers is I just throw the bananas in the freezer whole and unpeeled. Then I let them thaw and squeeze them into the batter when the recipe calls for them. I think that is the secret to the moist, denseness that my banana bread has. This bread CAN NOT be doubled. I know because I have tried 3 times and the bread won’t rise. Cool COMPLETELY on a rack before wrapping and refrigerating. Or it will be icky and sticky in the middle. Enjoy!,I have researched a lot of different opinions on how this should be made. I followed this as my base and used some of the siggested tweaks. So used1 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. I substituted the milk for heavy whipping cream and added a pinch of salt. I did not have over-ripe bananas (which I prefer) so I took 3 ripe bananas and baked them on 200 for 20 min until black and they were PERFECT! Otherwise, I followed the recipe entirely and it was wonderful and made the moist bread I was looking for. I think the nail on the head was whipping the egg whites seperately. Thanks for the tips! Oh and I also omitted the nuts but that is just because I don’t care for them.,This recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups of white sugar. Way too much! I suggest 1/2 cup white and 1/2 cup light brown packed. When I made it, I added 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt to the flour. Used 1/2 cup of chopped pecans in lieu of 1 cup. This can be baked in one regular size loaf pan for 60-65 minutes. Folding in the egg whites made it lighter than most banana bread recipes. Very nice. Definitely a keeper!
