Banana Bread Recipe

Banana Bread is one of my favorite treats to make! Especially with the fall season here and the weather slowly starts to drop here in Texas, a fresh loaf of banana bread is the best to come home to. The recipe takes a little over an hour to mix your ingrdients and bake.

Small note: I do use an electric mixer to make this recipe, but if you do not have one that is okay! You can always use a hand mixer or just use a whisk and hand mix it with that. Another note is that my bread pan is 9×5. I don’t know how much it matter if you use a different size, but I have always found this pan to work best for me.

Ingredients

  • 2 Cups of flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegitable oil
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 bananas (I like mine to be ripped)
  • 1/2 chopped wallnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Set your oven to 325 degrees
  2. In a seperate bowl mix together your flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside for later.
  3. In your electric mixer bowl (or a different bowl if you are hand mixing) add in your egg, oil, and sugar. Mix until combined.
  4. Once combined then add in your dry ingrdeints slowly. (I like to just add little bits and a time a let mix until its completly mixed in.)
  5. Now add in your milk, vanilla. Then add in your bananas while mixing at a slow medium speed.
  6. Scrape down the sides and make sure everything is mixed together. If you are adding walnuts add them now and mix them in with a speatula.
  7. Pour your mixuture into your breadpan and cook for 55-70 minutes.
  8. Once cooked through, let the bread cool down for 15 minutes before taking it out of the pan and enjoy!
