Banana Bread

(This recipe is based off of the one on this website, all credit for the recipe goes to Elise Bauer. I couldn’t find my family’s usual recipe when I was creating the pictures. )

What you need to make some sweet bread!

Ingredients:

Super ripe bananas, peeled

1 large egg

1 1/2 cups of flour

3/4 cup of sugar

1/3 cup melted butter

1 teaspoon of baking soda

1 pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C) and butter a loaf pan

2. In a mixing bowl, mash ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Add melted butter.

3. Add the rest of the ingredients in this order, mixing well: baking soda, salt, sugar, egg and flour.

4. Pour batter into the loaf pan. Bake for 50 minutes to an hour at 350 F (175 C) or until you can poke a butter knife into the center and it comes out clean (no goo or crumbs).

5. Remove it from the oven, let it cool and enjoy!

Step 2 (Make sure they are gooey bananas!)

Step 4

This is always a hit with any pot luck and the reason I will let bananas turn to mush. Great for snacks, lunches, breakfast or any other time. Also you can add nuts or my favorite, chocolate chips. Enjoy!
