BAKE ME: Whole Wheat Banana Bread

One of my favorite recipes in my arsenal is my banana bread. It is the recipe I make most often and is what my friends want most. Whenever I have ripe bananas in the house this is my go-to.

The recipe had been buried at the bottom of the blog so I have decided to reissue it with some new glamour shots!

Ingredients:

Bananas, 2-4 ripe, mashed

Margarine, 1 stick, unsalted, melted

Whole Wheat Flour, 1-1/2 cups

Baking Powder, 1 teaspoon

Sea Salt, 1/2 teaspoon

Baking Soda, 1/4 teaspoon

Eggs, 2

Brown Sugar, 1/2 cup

White Sugar, 1/2 cup

Vanilla Extract, 1 teaspoon

Chocolate Chips, optional

Pecans, chopped, optional

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Spray your Farberware Nonstick Loaf Pan with PAM or cover with Reynolds Parchment Paper.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and sea salt.
  4. In a large bowl mash the bananas.
  5. Add the margarine, sugars, eggs and vanilla to the large bowl and mix together until just combined.
  6. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the large bowl and mix until combined. Be careful not to over mix.
  7. At this time fold in your chocolate chips or chopped pecans.
  8. Pour the batter into your Farberware Nonstick Loaf Pan.
  9. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  10. Cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes and then remove and cool on a wire rack.
