Best banana bread - mindylawson - 01-20-2011
Does anyone have the recipe for Best Banana bread from the Oct 08 issue? I think it is issue 71. I have been a subscriber since beginning 2007 but I am sadly missing several issues since I moved to Tennessee :-( Thanks so much! I have several brown bananas and don't want to trash them!

I can post this evening if someone else doesn't get to it first.
Welcome to the forum, Mindy!

Typically, I'd do it, but I'm about to leave again.
Welcome, Mindy!

Is this the one you are looking for?
Best-Ever Banana Bread
1½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp table salt
1 cup sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1½ cups mashed banana
½ cup walnuts, toasted, chopped, optional
Preheat oven to 325°
Coat a 5 x8" loaf pan with nonstick spray.
Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl; set aside.
Blend sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla together in a second bowl with a hand mixer until light in color, 2-3 minutes.
Alternately add flour mixture and mashed banana to the egg mixture, starting and ending with flour.
Blend just until flour is combined, then fold in walnuts.
Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 1-1¼ hours.
Let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes before turning out; cool completely before slicing.

Thanx, Morgan for posting! I haven't tried this recipe yet; have you?
Re: Best banana bread - Gourmet_Mom - 01-20-2011
This is bound to be it. I checked the index and only one recipe came up. The rest of the entries were tips or not an actual Banana Bread recipe.

Mindy and Morgan, welcome to the forum and thanks for requesting this recipe. There's never any shortage of bananas where I live and they are truly ripe here (unlike how under-ripe they have to be to ***** them to the States), so they are perfect for banana bread. Oddly enough, I haven't made any, yet, in the six years I've been here (although the banana pancakes I've made have been spectacular).so it looks like it's about time.
Come back soon to let us know how this recipe works out for you, then come back often to enjoy lots of great food and camaraderie.
