Day 9 of Project 365 – A Year of Family Cooking - This banana bread is a great snack for after school or anytime! Thanks to donogh.com for this great recipe (which I modified slightly for our tastes).
Ingredients:
1/3 cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 cup organic honey
1 1/2 cups mashed banana
2 cups all purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
With a mixer, beat together the butter, egg, honey and banana.
Mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to the creamed mixture and stir until moistened. Fold in pecans if using.
Pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 25 minutes. Turn the oven down to 300 and continue baking for around 30 minutes, or until the top springs back when lightly pressed.
