Bakery Style Banana Bread Recipes

FLOUR'S FAMOUS BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Spray two 8×4-inch loaf pans with floured cooking spray, or grease and flour the pans; set aside.
• To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or large mixing bowl and electric mixer) add the eggs, sugar, and beat on medium-high speed until smooth, well-combined, and mixture is golden yellow in color, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and with the mixer running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the oil. Don't dump it all in at once. Beat at medium speed until incorporated, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the bananas, sour cream, vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until combined, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and beat on low speed until just combined, about 1 minute.
• Turn batter out into prepared pans, smoothing the tops lightly with a spatula if necessary, and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes (I baked 37 minutes), or until tops are domed, set, a toothpick inserted in the center crack comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs but no batter. Optionally, in the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking, tent pans with foil (loosely drape a sheet of foil over pans) to prevent excessive browning on the top and sides of bread before center cooks through.
• Remove pans from oven and allow to them to cool on top of a wire rack for about 15 to 30 minutes before turning out onto rack to cool completely.

BAKERY STYLE BANANA BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and beat until smooth and add mashed bananas. Mix in pudding mix and milk. Add dry ingredients (salt and baking powder and flour, one cup at a time). Stir in nuts.
• Grease or lightly spray two loaf pans with cooking spray. Pour batter into loaf pans and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes. If it seems as though your bread is getting too brown, too fast, you can tent it slightly with a piece of foil the last 15 minutes or so. Insert a toothpick. If it comes out really doughy, bake another 8 minutes and check it again. Toothpick should come out fairly clean.
• Let bread stand for 10 minutes and then run a knife around the edges to loosen it up. Turn out onto a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes then wrap in plastic wrap. Allow to rest on a cooling rack 6-8 hours.
