Banana Raisin Bread
Banana bread is a great comfort dessert or snack for any day of the week! My husband loves it for a quick morning breakfast on weekdays before work! Enjoy this simple and tasty recipe!
3 Bananas, well-ripened
1 cup of sugar
1/3 cup corn oil
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup raisins
2 cups water (for soaking raisins)
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)
1. Heat water to a boil in microwave or on stovetop. Turn off heat and add raisins. Set aside for about 15 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a potato masher.
3. Mix all other ingredients together. Stir until well combined.
4. Remove plumped raisins from water and pat dry with paper towels. Fold into batter.
5. Pour into a loaf pan and bake at 350 for one hour and fifteen minutes.
6. Let cool, slice and enjoy!
Hello there,
ReplyDeleteI tried this recipe today and we simply loved it. Next time will coat the raisins in some flour before I add to the batter so they don't sink to the bottom half ..something I read some place!
Thanks so much!
Ok, I was stupid and added the water to batter. Bad idea. You might add instructions to recipe to discard water after removing raisins, for stupid people like me. I will try again.
ReplyDeleteanother dumb person that added the water to the batter.. It has been cooking for over an hour and is a total mush.. I'm so disappointed :(
