BANANA YEAST BREAD

Though our two children (now grown; we have one granddaughter) dislike bananas, they've always enjoyed this. It's been a standby since my grandmother shared the recipe before I was married. Cooking is fun for me...but I have to admit I would rather bake than make a meal. This yeast bread is my favorite. -Maralee Meyer, Milford, Nebraska

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
  • Use a combination of flours: All-purpose flour provides structure, while whole wheat flour adds a nutty flavor and more nutrients.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the banana bread tough and dry.
  • Let the batter rest before baking: This allows the flavors to develop and the gluten to relax, resulting in a more tender crumb.
  • Bake the banana bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the banana bread cool completely before slicing and serving: This allows the flavors to meld and the bread to set properly.
