You haven’t really eaten the BEST Banana Bread if you haven’t had a spoonful of Nutella smeared on top of a warm right out of the oven slice. Now don’t just cut a sliver, give yourself a 2 finger slab!
Have you tried it with Nutella?
Are you a purist and enjoy your banana bread plain?
OR
Do you add a thin layer of butter, peanut butter or Nutella overt top of a warm slice?
I’m sharing the recipe to this simple, nutty loaf because we can never have too many recipes.
Banana Bread
Makes 1 Loaf
Author: Mary Mammoliti / Kitchen Confession
INGREDIENTS
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. sea salt
2 large eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup walnuts (optional)
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
3 large ripe bananas
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Butter one loaf pan. (I butter generously.)
In a stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.
With the mixer on low, add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Add the vanilla, buttermilk, yogurt and bananas.
Add the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Divide batter into the prepared pan. Bake for approximately 1 hour.
Remove from oven and turn loaf out onto cooling rack immediately. Let cool.
