Banana Bread...mmmmm

[Marge Simpson]

OK, heres the Banana Bread recipe. Made 2 batches of this today. I do think this is my favorite banana bread recipe, I have used it for years, got it from my Grandma, I have no idea where she got it
You can always add nuts if you want, or dried cranberries (yum!), or anything that you want. Always moist. OH, and it freezes GREAT! Just wrap tight, date, and it keeps for months

Wet ingredients, put all in blender,mix til smooth:
6 bananas
4 eggs
1 1/3 c oil (I also sub apple sauce, same amount)
2 tsp vanilla
8 oz sour cream


Dry ingredients, mix in big bowl:
4 c flour
2 1/2 c sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking soda
2 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 c nuts/dried friut of choice

Pour blended wet ingredients on top of mixed dry ingredients, mix.
pour into bread pan, muffin tin, whatever you are baking in.

Bake 350 degrees til done.

Thanks, I'm always looking for new recipes, do you think I could use plain yogurt in the place of sour cream? I have a bunch to use up and this would be great.

I have a banana bread recipe that is so simple, i make it all the time with my little ones.
2 cups flour(plus little extra for dusting greased pans)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light or dark brown sugar
3 1/2 tsps. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
3 Tblsps. veg. oil
1/3 cup milk
1 egg
2-3 bananas( i use 3-4 depending on size)better if a little ripe
1 cup chopped walnuts(optional)
1 tsp. vanilla(i always add a little extra)
1 tsp. cinnamon(again, add extra)soooo good
1 tsp. nutmeg
preheat oven to 350 degrees. grease and flour pans. combine all dry ingredients. add all remaining ingredients except nuts(if using fold in last). pour into pans(use whatever pans you want,cake,loaf,personally i make these in cupcake tins, easier for the little ones) bake 55-60 mins if in loaf pan, otherwise i just keep a check on them and test with a toothpick. the best part about this recipe for me is that i can make this without having to dirty the mixer because it comes out just as well when i mix everything by hand. i hope you'll try it, it's very good and really easy. oh, i sometimes add raisins too!

oh Denis LOVES bananas, 1-2 naners a day. I am going to have to bake this for him. I love the 'throw it in the blender' idea...but my heart melted when I read it came from Grandma (I miss my Gram

Miss mine very much also. She just passed a few years ago, at age 92, almost 93
I think most of the things I cook (well anyway) came from cooking with her. Of course, all the best are fried in bacon grease!
made fried cabbage last night, yum!
Love that banana bread recipe, it has been a favorite for so long. I has more bananas that the usual recipe, and it stays moist forever! I think because of the sour cream, makes for richer taste, I think. Enjoy, hope Denis likes it

Oh Marge - WOWZER, this bread is delish. My Mother-in-law bought the ingredients to do one of each, 1 applesauce and one baked w the oil. VERY moist just like you say. I like all the extra bananas too. Thanks for sharing - always willing to try a new recipe, especially if it comes from GRANDMA, thanks Gram!!!

If you like Banana bread, this is a MUST TRY!
