Banana Bread




Faced with a "dilemma" of one too many over-ripe bananas, my Mom once said "when life gives you overly ripe bananas it's time to make banana bread".
Hope you enjoy this recipe! *We didn't take pictures of our banana bread, but I borrowed some from weheartit.com :)

Banana Bread

Ingredients:

1 cup white flour

1 cup whole wheat flour

2 eggs

½ tsp salt

¼ cup milk (regular or skim, whatever you have in your fridge)

1/3 cup canola oil

½ cup sugar

1 tsp baking powder

½ tsp basking soda

1 tsp cinnamon

2 very ripe bananas (they should be almost all black) Peeled and smashed in a bowl.

Preparation:

Set oven to 350 degrees. Peel your 2 very ripe bananas and smash them in a bowl using a fork.

Recipe:

Cream together oil and sugar add eggs and milk, beat well. Add all of your dry ingredients, mix together until combined and add the mashed bananas. Then mix together. Spoon batter into prepared loaf pan (9X5 should do).Bake for 45-50 minutes. Then test with a tooth pick. Place a tooth pick in the middle of the loaf, pull it out-if it comes out clean then you’re all set—if there’s still some batter left on the toothpick-leave the banana bread in for another 5-10 minutes. Enjoy this with a nice cold glass of milk!
