BANANA STREUSEL BREAD



Banana Streusel Bread image

This bread is simply put, delicious! The addition of the cream cheese is sensational. I added the streusel to the center as well the top and the glaze. It's very extremely moist and packs a wonderful sensation to the taste buds. Good with a glass of milk or even a nice steaming cup of coffee.

Categories     Sweet Breads

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 20

BREAD
1/2 c margarine, softened
1 pkg 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 c white sugar
2 eggs
1 c mashed bananas, (about 3 bananas)
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/4 c all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
ICING
1/4 c hot water
2 c confectioners' sugar
1/4 c butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
STREUSEL
1 c all purpose flour
2 tsp cinnamon
1 c brown sugar, lightly packed
8 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened, cut into 1/2

Steps:

  • 1. Cream the butter or margarine and cream cheese together. Gradually add the white sugar, and continue beating until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder, and soda; mix until batter is just moist.
  • 2. For the center and topping, in a medium bowl, stir together the flour, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Add the butter pieces and combine the mixture with a fork until the topping resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  • 3. Divide 1/2 batter into two greased and floured 8x4 inch loaf pans. Sprinkle 1/2 struesel mixture over batter in pans, and top with remaining batter.
  • 4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  • 5. After bread has cooled somewhat, invert onto the dish of your choice.
  • 6. In a medium sized bowl, combine the vanilla and sugar. Slowly blend in the butter and mix until well blended. Add water to the sugar mixture slowly. The best way is to add a tablespoon at a time, mixing it together after each tablespoon of water. Only use enough water to create a slightly runny consistency. It should be thin enough to spread but not too thin where it runs off the bread and does not cling to it. Sometimes you will need to use more than 1/4 cup and sometimes you won't need as much. Never use more than ½ cup of water. Drizzle over the bread when it is still warm (not hot).
  • 7. Take remaining struesel and sprinkle lightly over the top of the glaze to your desire. Enjoy!

1/4 cup butter or margarine melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix together the butter and sugar until smooth, and then add the eggs, smashed up bananas and vanilla. Blend until mixed together really well. Next, in a separate bowl combine the dry ingredients. While the mixer is still on, slowly add the flour mixture and mix until smooth.
  • Spray a loaf pan to prevent sticking. Recipe makes one loaf.
  • Pour banana bread batter into the loaf pan and set aside. The Streusel (makes enough for 2 loaves of bread)- 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup flour 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 cup butter or margarine melted.
  • Mix the ingredients together.
  • Drop spoonfuls over the banana bread batter.
  • Bake for an hour at 350 degrees.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread will be.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender bread.
  • Add the eggs one at a time: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense bread.
  • Spread the batter evenly in the pan: This will help to ensure that the bread bakes evenly.
  • Bake the bread at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes: Depending on the size of your loaf pan, baking times may vary.
  • Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing and serving: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
