We have all been there...the last few bananas sit in the bowl and turn a little black while the week buzzes by. Everytime you pass them you think, "I really need to make banana bread." Then, just as quickly the moment passes. Yesterday I felt more inspired than usual. I called my brother for his recipe. He was happy to share it but wasn't where it was handy. I waited a few hours then I decided to crack open one of my many cookbooks.
This is what happened...
My house smells like bananas and butter right now...I am baking a Paula Deen banana bread.....
1/2 C butter, room temp
1 C sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 C flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
3 ripe bananas
Preheat oven to 350.
Grease 9x5 pan.
In a mixing bowl, combine butter and sugar, mix well. Add the salt, eggs, vanilla, flour, baking soda, baking powder and bananas, and mix well.
Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 50 minutes.
At this point I don't care if it tastes good, my house smells so good I can't stand it. The dogs keep coming upstairs to tell me there is something in the oven. They usually only do that when I am baking chicken.
*************
Update: It tastes even better than it smells. I can't believe I found a recipe that doesn't need any tweak to improve upon it. Simple and delicious. Sooooo good.
