Banana – Rants Raves and Recipes

Cinnamon Raisin Banana Bread

The junior member of the clan has of late developed a taste for cinnamon raisin bread, to the detriment of his bananas for breakfast. So with a whole lot of bananas about to go south, I figured I would make banana bread, but then got to thinking, why not add the cinnamon and raisins?

Ingredients for Cinnamon Raisin Banana Bread

3- 4 Overripe bananas
½ cup butter softened
1 cup dark brown sugar
2 whole eggs
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
1- 1½ cups loosely packed raisins
1/3 cup of granulated sugar
1½ Tbs cinnamon

Directions for Cinnamon Raisin Banana Bread

Preheat oven to 350º,

Lightly grease a loaf pan,

In a bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt,

In a separate bowl whisk together the cinnamon and granulated sugar.

In a mixer on low speed cream the butter and sugar. When well blended add the bananas and mix until they are fully mashed and incorporated.

Add the eggs one at a time, adding after each is fully combined.

With the mixer on low add the flour, baking powder and salt. and continue to mix until all the ingredients are gully combined.

With the mixer still on low add the raisins. Once combined remove the mixer bowl scraping down the sides.

Add about ½ the cinnamon sugar mixture and with a spatula whirl it into the batter, once mixed in, add the remaining cinnamon and whirl that into the mixture.

Pour into the lightly greased loaf pan and bake in the center of the oven for 60 – 80 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the oaf comes out clean.

Place on to a wire rack and allow to cool for about 5 minutes then remove from the pan by inverting onto a wire rack, once removed from the pan turn the bread right side up.

Here are a few items to help make this recipe:

Bananas, raisins, cinnamon in bread? I would rather have it plain with a little sliced chicken inside, not a S.A.P.P. dish but I did like the melted butter, so only 3 paws and skip the fruits and bring on the meats!

Yum

Banana Bread

The junior member of the clan is graduating to real food. We thought that we could try some mashed bananas but we didn’t get around to it, and I ended up with four bananas going brown. Not one to waste food if we can help it, I jumped into action and pulled out a recipe for Banana Bread.

Ingredients for Banana Bread

4 overripe bananas
½ cup butter softened
1 cup dark brown sugar
2 whole eggs
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
½ – 1 cup toasted almonds slivers

Directions for Banana Bread

Preheat oven to 350º

Lightly grease a loaf pan

In a mixer on low speed cream the butter and sugar. When well blended add the bananas and mix until they are completely mashed and incorporated.

Add the eggs one at a time waiting until the first is fully combined.

In a bowl mix the flour, baking powder and salt and with mixer on slow gradually add the dry ingredients until everything is combined.

With the mixer still on low add the almonds. when fully combined pour into the greased loaf pan and set in the middle of the oven and bake for about 60 minutes until a toothpick comes out of the center clean. Place a sheet pan on a rack below the bread rack as it may leak some of the grease as it rises.

When fully baked place on a wire rack to cool slightly, then remove from the pan turn loaf upright and allow to cool completely on the wire rack.

I’m not sure about this recipe, it was OK I guess, but put butter on anything and I’ll eat it. I wouldn’t want it every day, so I guess reluctantly it’s only a pup 3 paw review. Everyone else seemed to enjoy though!
