Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 tablespoons butter
10 tablespoons dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 cup chopped pecans (or more, toasted)
1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
4 very ripe bananas, mashed (or 1 3/4 c, the bananas have to be so ripe that they're nearly black!)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (I add 1 tblsp)
4 tablespoons buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda (I also add 3/4 tsp baking powder)
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cream butter and sugar; mash bananas, beat 2 eggs and add to the bananas with vanilla and buttermilk; mix well and add to creamed butter and sugar; sift together flour, soda and salt; add to banana mixture, beat well; pour into 2 greased and floured 9x5x3-inch loaf pans; bake 45 to 50 minutes (I find this bread needs over an hour) or until bread pulls away from sides of pan; add topping.
  • To prepare Topping: Melt butter in saucepan; add sugar and milk; cook until syrupy (like honey); remove from heat and add chopped pecans; pour over bread spreading to all the corners and place under broiler until bubbly and brown.
  • Watch closely (this takes around 1 minute- maybe even less!).

BEST & EASIEST BANANA BREAD



Best & Easiest Banana Bread image

This is an incredibly moist and simple to make banana bread that takes literally five minutes to throw together. And it's low fat! This recipe is pretty much foolproof so feel free to play around and improvise. If you really want to reduce the fat you can substitute applesauce for the butter. I adapted this recipe from one printed in "Cookie Magazine" (March 2006). The original recipe is called "Aunt Holly's Banana Bread". Enjoy! :-)
