Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter one 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
• Whisk together the flour, pecans, granulated sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk together the eggs, melted butter, buttermilk, brown sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl; stir in the mashed bananas. Fold the banana mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps).
• Pour the batter into the buttered pan and lightly tap the pan on the counter to evenly distribute the batter. Bake until browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out completely clean, about 1 hour. Let the bread cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.

THE BEST HEALTHY BANANA BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Lay a sheet of parchment paper across the bottom and up the sides of the pan (see photo in post above).
• Melt the butter in a large glass bowl in the microwave (or melt butter in a pot on the stove and transfer to a large mixing bowl).
• Add the honey and mashed banana to the bowl and whisk to combine. Whisk in the eggs.
• Add the baking soda, salt, cinnamon and vanilla to the bowl. Whisk until very well combined.
• Add the flour and mix with a rubber spatula until just combined. You want all of the flour to be incorporated into the batter, but try not to over-mix.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan. Bake for 55-65 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Check on the banana bread after 35 minutes and loosely cover with foil as needed to prevent the top from over-browning.
• Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then transfer it to a wire rack to finish cooling.

• Cream margarine and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs, then bananas. Add flour and soda, stirring just until combined.

HEALTHY BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
• In a large bowl, beat the oil and honey together with a whisk. Add the eggs and beat well, then whisk in the mashed bananas and milk. (If your coconut oil solidifies on contact with cold ingredients, simply let the bowl rest in a warm place for a few minutes, like on top of your stove, or warm it for about 10 seconds in the microwave.)
• Add the baking soda, vanilla, salt and cinnamon, and whisk to blend. Lastly, switch to a big spoon and stir in the flour, just until combined. Some lumps are ok! If you're adding any additional mix-ins, gently fold them in now.
• Pour the batter into your greased loaf pan and sprinkle lightly with cinnamon. If you'd like a pretty swirled effect, run the tip of a knife across the batter in a zig-zag pattern.
• Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (typically, if I haven't added any mix-ins, my bread is done at 55 minutes; if I have added mix-ins, it needs closer to 60 minutes). Let the bread cool in the loaf pan for at least 10 minutes. You may need to run a butter knife around the edges to loosen the bread from the pan. Carefully transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8-by-4 inch loaf pan.

• Gradually fold the flour into the banana mixture until just combined (do not overmix).
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 45-50 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

KETO BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a 9-inch loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; mix well.
• In a separate larger bowl, combine butter, cream cheese, erythritol, and stevia, mixing until smooth. Add in the eggs, one at a time, then milk and banana extract, mixing until well combined. The mixture will look curdled, but that's alright.
• Add dry mixture to wet and mix well, until combined. Fold in nuts (if using), then transfer to the lined pan. Cover the pan completely in aluminum foil.
• Bake the banana bread for 45-50 minutes, removing the tin foil around the 40 minute mark, to allow top to brown. Remove from the oven once the center is mostly set.
• Let the bread cool in the pan completely, before slicing.
