APPLE BANANA BREAD



Apple Banana Bread image

This recipe is now back to my original posting as I posted it at Recipezaar many years ago. Recently I noticed that somehow the name got changed as did some of the ingredients. In 2005 I wrote that this is a moist light bread/cake with just a hint of cinnamon. Keeep an eye on cooking times as too long and it will be drier. Also leave in tin for about 5 mins before turning out onto a rack to cool completely. Slices can be served as a dessert topped with custard and whipped cream, or cold and buttered.

APPLE-BUTTER BANANA BREAD



Apple-Butter Banana Bread image

This recipe is a bit unusual because there is apple butter added to the batter which replaces the fat that would come from butter (which a lot of quick bread recipes use) and there is also canola oil added instead of vegetable so It's a little healthier. The Apple Butter gives this bread a lot of flavor as well. Enjoy, This is delicious! From BHG.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your banana bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for at least 10 minutes before baking will help it to develop more flavor.
  • Bake the bread at a moderate temperature: Baking the bread at a moderate temperature (350°F) will help it to rise evenly and prevent it from overcooking.
  • Don't overcook the bread: Overcooked banana bread will be dry and crumbly. Check the bread for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the bread is done.
  • Let the bread cool completely before serving: Letting the bread cool completely before serving will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:
