Hi Steem Fam! Remember in my post last week, I mentioned how I like to show you THE BEST recipes? Like the best chocolate brownies, and the best soup etc? This week's recipe is my literal best Home Made Banana Bread.
Once again, it's a recipe that I have been making for years and years, and over time I have made small changes here and there. It's based on Joy the Baker's recipe (in my eyes the Queen of baking), but I have made some small changes to make it, in my humble opinion, even better. It's important to make the original version of a recipe first, before you do try to implement any changes, as you may completely stuff it up!
I love banana bread and am sure you will love this recipe too. It's got a lovely crunchy crust, and a soft and crumbly inner. The muscovado sugar adds this deep, dark depth to the flavour that is just soooo amazing. Served warm with lashings of butter and coffee, it is such a treat!
๐DID YOU KNOW? ๐
๐National Banana Bread Day is celebrated in the USA on the 23rd February
๐The first Banana Bread recipe ever published was featured in Pillsbury's 1933 cookbook, Balanced Recipes.
๐ It is thought that Banana Bread is the result of housewives utilising bananas going off during the Great Depression, not wanting to waste the expensive bananas.
INGREDIENTS
๐170g (6 oz) salted butter, melted and browned to just over 1/2 cup of butter
๐2 cups self-raising flour
๐3/4 cup muscovado sugar
๐1/2 t salt
๐3/4 t ground cinnamon
๐1/2 t nutmeg
๐2 large eggs
๐1 t vanilla essence
๐1/4 cup buttermilk
๐1 1/4 cup mashed banana (from about 3 medium bananas)
๐2 t treacle syrup
METHOD
Preheat your oven to 180'C, and grease a loaf tin. To prevent the loaf from sticking, you can sprinkle some flour over the greased tin.
Now, for the browning of butter! My favourite part. In a small saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter. The butter will start to bubble and spit a bit. Once it stops, it will start to turn brown. Once brown, pour the melted butter into a small bowl and place in the fridge to cool.
Next, in a large mixing bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients. In another bowl, mash the bananas with the treacle and buttermilk. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla essence.
Once it is cool, you can add the butter. Then, add the wet ingredients to the dry, folding slowly and carefully. Do not over stir.
Pour the batter into the greased and floured pan. Don't worry if it looks like a little bit of mixture, it will rise and spread out.
Bake for 50 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin.
I haven't really tried homemade banana bread before. From the bakery, yes, but never made at home. I am hoping that this might change in the near future as I have just moved into a nice apartment from the hostel that I was living in.
Having a personal kitchen could be a boon. It only has been six days here and I havn't once eaten outside and have been making my own food (its a record for me). So maybe a this recipe will be in my near future as well :-)
PS: @princessmewmew that's a great new logo :-)
Iโm glad to hear youโve moved into your own place! It can be fun, especially making your own food. Cost effective too! If you do make the banana bread Iโd love to hear!
Thanks for the compliment on my footer, I am so pleased with it too!
Thatโs true. Even though you are inspired by โJoy the Baker's recipe the Queen of bakingโ, everyone is different, everyone has a diferent taste. I do love banana bread as well, even more when I have these days thinking ๐ค about something sweet and nothing else. Iโve already made banana bread my self before few times and it has always satisfied my cravings. Baking banana is definitely great way not to waist or throw out any, especially in the summer time when it can go bad very fast. Thatโs also one of the main reasons Iโve been making banana cake myself. There are few ingredients I havenโt used before in my bread such as cinnamon, nutmeg, treacle syrup and vanilla essence. All are great ingredients that I find very tasteful and I will use when I get to baking banana bread again. I like the trick with the butter. I will remember it. If not, I can always check your blog ๐.
Looks tasty and delicious @adsactly & @princessmewmew!
yeah, this recipe is not so sweet, the muscovado sugar is more of a caramel taste than sugary. ANd the trick with the butter is literally LIFE CHANGING! lol. it really changes the taste. thank you!
That looks yummy...after banana and banana shake this is something new....never heard of it but now thinking of giving a try...banana is always at home but it can be put in this unique never thought of. Here in India we use banana in multiple dishes like 'pua' ..though bit oily ..but we love oily stuff...thanks for sharing such amazing usage of banana.....๐
@princessmewmew, First of all in my opinion Banana Bread is really unique itself but i really liked the Combination for sure. And in my opinion when it comes to food then we should have creativity.
And literally speaking, these pictures hold the appealing essence and whenever we see delicious stuff then automatically it creates an great essence in our tummy for sure.
Those Banana slices giving that refreshing essence and in my opinion anyone who will watch these kind of banana slices, they will prefer it in their own foodie stuff.
And all these Ingredient Details and step by step "How To" to process is really appreciable, and hope that many will going to try this recipe for sure because it's really creative.
Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. ๐
thank you so much for your lovely comment. Very much appreciated
Welcome and thank you so much for your kind appreciation. Stay blessed. ๐
NICE POST, Want to try it..
Seeing photos and recipes of this banana cake seems very tasty. in our hometown, bananas are very abundant. We used to make fresh fruit, some cakes and even banana chips. but with this creation you have made a significant contribution to the development of cakes with banana ingredients. By making our own banana cake we are more experienced, adding to family members and of course very economical when compared to buying at a pastry shop.
as we know, bananas contain important vitamins and minerals for our body. The vitamin C content is beneficial for the body. Eating bananas is also very good for healing. Large potassium content is very useful for good health for heart health. Moreover, we know that bananas contain calories and sugar which are very well eaten after exercise because they can immediately restore energy. Also for those who want to lose weight bananas can be used as an alternative diet.
And what's great is that even in America there is a national banana bread day commemoration ...
With this banana cake recipe, we will taste the delicious cakes and get the big benefits.
Teima thanks @princessmewmew
Thank you @adsactly
thank you steemit
Warm regard from Indonesia
Yum! looks so good! Going to have to make some myself.
Never used muscovado sugar ? will have to try ? ty
I always use coconut sugar in mine
tiny tip back to you; whipping cream instead of the buttermilk "heaven"
ooh i will try with the whipped cream - i can imagine it makes the cake very light. Muscovado sugar is more caramel in flavour than regular sugar
Hola,
don't whip the cream just pour it into the mix.
My cat Scar after dinner.
It is a very simple recipe, but you make it look wonderfully appetizing, I will try to make it at home :)
Awwww @princessmewmew you're so good at this! I love the photos and how the post looks! Of course, I like how the banana bread turned out to! :D Though, I can feel the texture is much different from the one I've been eating in Thailand since I was a kid. Prolly it's a bit different everywhere?? Wow, I'm now curious!
thank you babe! thats a lovely compliment.
It's got quite a dense texture, but super soft and crumbly. I've had banana breads that were more moist, and this one turned out a litttle bit more dry than those, which was quite refreshing. Almost cake like.
you'll just have to make it to see what i mean!!
Haaaa :D I suck at cooking but good at eating โค๏ธ

Very interesting "Did You Know" info. I just love banana bread. thanks for the recipe.
Thank you Andre, I am so pleased you enjoyed!
This very delicious food and I appreciate this post and I solidly trust that banana bread is something you ought to have the capacity to make whenever and anyplace, with a blender or with a fork, in a portion skillet or in a biscuit tin โ at whatever point you have a couple of bananas going delicate and freckly. Banana bread, I'm almost certain, is no less than 50 percent of the reason bananas exist @princessmewmew..
Here is an exceptionally fundamental and extremely lenient formula that takes all of 10 minutes to whisk together. A hour of pausing while your home loads up with enticing fragrances and after that you'll be eating on your own one of a kind cut of warm, new heated banana bread.
Thanks for sharing this food Recipe @adsactly and @princessmewmew
Look at this! You vote your own comments and your conspirators.
How nasty is that?
One thing I could add for a substitution. If you don't have buttermilk. My great grandma would use full fat milk and squirt lemon into it. Just a helpful hint to help. Bake on my friends ๐
Banana is very useful for health. The Banana Bread taste made from home is completely different. Moist and delicious banana bread recipe. This banana bread is moist and delicious with loads of banana flavor!
This is mouth watering!
The first time I tried banana bread, I did with smoothie (banana, watermelon and yoghurt cream). It was heavenly
hmmm..it looks nice and yummy.
GOOD

To influence this banana to bread you'll begin with some generally useful flour, preparing powder, heating pop, ground cinnamon, and salt. With regards to the flour, make a point to spoon and level it into your estimating glass as opposed to scooping it out of the compartment. In the event that you scoop your flour out of the holder, you can wind up with an excessive amount of flour in your formula and a super thick portion of banana bread.
For the wet fixings, you'll cream together some margarine, granulated sugar, and darker sugar until it's light in shading and cushy. At that point, you'll blend in a few eggs and vanilla concentrate.
You'll additionally be utilizing two measures of squashed banana in this formula. It might appear a great deal of banana, yet it's what keeps this banana bread super soggy. Keep in mind forget that the riper the bananas, the better with regards to banana bread!..
That's it..
You copied content from the post? Again? I don't get it. Another flag.
I just made this using frozen bananas. When my bananas are getting too soft, I throw them in the freezer. They will turn black but that's ok & they can be kept for a while like that. The night before I made this I took them out of the freezer, put them on a plate & thawed in the fridge as they will leak some water. They work perfectly that way & most of the mashing is already done for you. This is a great saver for bananas that I would normally throw out. I then followed this recipe exactly & it came out perfect. It's moist, delicious & VERY easy. My oven gets hot so I only cooked it for 45-50 minutes not the entire hour.
Interesting that you had time to do all of this five minutes after the post was written when it takes fifty minutes to bake? ... no where does it say to bake an hour? You confuse me as I know your comments are spam, why donโt you just take the time to write a nice and normal comment?
I made this banana bread recipe, using whole wheat flower, instead of using Reg refined flower (2 cups); And, because the bananas already has natural sugar, I substituted the brown sugar with 4 Reg. envelops of Splenda to the butter. It worked! No other substitutes! Came out so delicious! I try to use whole wheat flower and Splenda, as much as I can. So far all substitutes of recipes have worked. Thank you @adsactly for this awesome recipe. Sadly, I can't eat white flower nor a lot of sugar. Again, thank you!!!๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐๐๐
Iโm curious to know how you made a fifty minute recipe in about five minutes and still have time to write this comment?
The first thing to note is that the dish looks delicious and causes a sense of appetite. For me this is a good criterion for evaluation :)
I like the fact that you use so many components to create an original range of taste. It's hard to imagine what it is like to taste the dish, but I have no doubt that it really combines the taste and benefits. This dish from the category - "worth a try." Apparently you are very much ekperementriesh with their culinary delights. I'm sure your close people appreciate it :)
Thank you for another delicious dish and for telling me about your personal recipe. I like it
Sorry, I am not copy paste
.
I've tried this recipe before...and it was good..glad I found it again. I do like using the brown sugar as well. Thanks for the tip about 'ripe' bananas...that makes sense about the flavor being more enhanced...ripe bananas always have a stronger scent so using them in this recipe will only make it better. Will post again when I make it this week.
Youโve made it before? Where did you find the recipe? In my recipe book? Thereโs no brown sugar in the recipe and no tip about ripe bananas - where did you copy this comment from? Not cool at all!
This Banana Bread is impeccably sweet, sodden, and loaded with season! You can appreciate this bread plain, with hacked walnuts, or even chocolate chips. Ideal for breakfast or sweet!
Do you ever wind up with a bundle of overripe bananas sitting on your counter toward the finish of the week? Just me?
Honestly, I cherish bananas however we as a rule purchase an excessive number of at the store and after that end up with a pack left finished. My most loved approach to go through those overripe bananas? This custom made banana bread formula!
Is this bread consummately sweet, as well as it remains soggy for a considerable length of time. Not a single dry banana bread to be seen. You can appreciate this bread plain or blend in some slashed walnuts or even chocolate chips. Anyway you make it, this is one formula that you'll need to keep close by!
Thanks so much for this sharing @adsactly
Whoa! I have always been a fan of your food recipes and delicious dishes. They should be titled the best. I have tried some of them and they were hella professional and tasty. Thanks for passing on the recipes and talent. Well this particular brownie recipe too is very brillaint. Love sweets.
Look familiar? not cool - flagged!
Today's recipe looks interesting and delicious as always. I like what you use as a basis for the traditional. I do not taste Western traditions, but now I know about it thanks to you and the video you attached. It is interesting.
Now I'm away and I can not afford to cook such dishes :) But I have already collected some of your recipes that I plan to make for myself. I think that this recipe will also add to the collection of recipes. It looks amazing and not difficult to prepare. The main thing is not to miss a step in which you should grease the wax paper. I think that the components of problems can not be.
Great recipe, as always. Thank you, I really liked
Look familiar?
Your post awesome for Recipe and this is my own activities and I say that This banana bread has been the most prominent formula on Simply Recipes for more than 10 years. A huge number of individuals make it consistently. Why?
@adsactly Since it truly is the best banana bread formula, period. You can blend everything in one bowl, you can shift the measure of sugar or bananas. What's more, the key to its extraordinary flavor? Liquefied margarine.
The magnificence of this banana bread formula is you needn't bother with an extravagant blender! A blending dish, a fork to whisk the eggs and a strong spoon to blend the player are all you require. The sugar sum is adaptable. The first formula required a measure of white sugar, however the vast majority, including me, do fine and dandy with 3/4 of a glass, and many are content with a 1/2 container.
You can hurl in some hacked nuts, raisins, or chocolate chips in the event that you need, or put the player into biscuit tins and influence banana to nut biscuits. You can even go above and beyond and influence chocolate banana to bread...
Jeeze. You told me where you copied from. Flag.
This is my historical thinking concept to provide in your post and this is my contribution @adsactly.
And I say that Banana bread initially turned into a standard component of American cookbooks with the promotion of heating pop and preparing powder in the 1930s. It showed up in Pillsbury's 1933 Balanced Recipes cookbook,and later increased more acknowledgment with the arrival of the first Chiquita Banana's Recipe Book in 1950.
National Banana Bread day is 23 February.Bananas showed up in the US in the 1870s and it took a while for them to show up as fixing things for desserts.[citation needed] The advanced banana bread recipe[5] started being distributed in cookbooks around the 1930s and its prominence was significantly helped by the presentation of heating powder available.
Some sustenance students of history trust banana bread was a result of the Great Depression as creative housewives did not wish to discard overripe bananas (as they were as yet an expensive thing to buy), others trust the cutting edge banana bread was produced in corporate kitchens to advance flour and preparing pop items @adsactly.
Iโm surprised youโve been making my personal recipe for years?
