Snack or Breakfast Treat: Banana Bread

Posted on September 1, 2010

Banana Bread

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 ¼ teaspoons baking powder

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 ripe bananas, sliced

1 cup Fisher Chef’s Naturals Walnuts, chopped

Preheat oven to 350 F.  Lightly spray 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with vegetable oil spray, flour; set aside.  In medium bowl combine flour, baking powder and cinnamon; set aside.

In large bowl cream butter and sugar using electric mixer.  Add eggs and vanilla extract; mix until well blended.  Add bananas, mixing well.  Stir in flour mixture and nuts; mix until just combined.

Spread mixture into prepared pan.  Bake 55 to 65 minutes until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center is clean when removed.  Remove to cooling rack; cool 8 minutes.  Gently loosen edges of bread from pan.  Remove bread from pan; cool completely.  Cut into slices to serve.

Yield:  1 loaf (14 slices)

Nutty Idea:  When measuring nuts for a recipe, use a dry measuring cup rather than a liquid measuring cup to ensure the most accurate measurement.
