BANANA BREAD

COOK MODE
Course: Breads and Rolls
1st Gen Author: Other

Ingredients

  • 1/4 C butter softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 C brown sugar
  • 1/2 C granulated sugar
  • 1 3/4 C flour
  • 1/2 C oatmeal
  • 1/2 C unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 large ripe bananas they can even be brown--just not moldy

Streusel

  • 1/3 C brown sugar
  • 1/2 C oatmeal
  • 1/2 C flour
  • 1/4 C butter

Maple Glaze

  • 1/4 C butter
  • 1/2 C brown sugar
  • 3 Tbsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp Mapleline flavoring
  • powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Cream butter, egg and sugars on high for 4 minutes.
  • Add bananas, one at a time on low speed and let mixer mash them.
  • Add soda, salt, oats and coconut, mix 30 seconds. Then add in flour and mix on low, just until blended.
  • Pour into greased or sprayed bread pan(s). Bake 20 min, quickly removed and add streusel, then finish baking the remaining 20-25 min. Test in center with toothpick for doneness. Remove from oven. Let stand 5 min, then dump out of pan and place right side up on cooling rack. While bread is still warm, but not hot, drizzle with maple glaze.
  • Baking directions are for 1 large loaf. If you choose to make 2 medium loaves, 3-4 small loaves or muffins, adjust/decrease the baking time.
  • This recipe is also delicious plain (without the streusel and glaze).

Streusel

  • Mix all ingredients together with a pastry blender, fork or with your fingers until it forms a crumbly mixutre.

Maple Glaze

  • Melt butter in saucepan, remove from heat and stir in brown sugar until dissolved. (don't boil--mixture will be smooth when brown sugar is dissolved.) Stir in milk and maple flavoring. Using a wire whisk, or beater, mix in enough powdered sugar to make a thin frosting that can be drizzled.
