VERSATILE BUTTERMILK BREAD - BANANA OR ZUCCHINI



Versatile Buttermilk Bread - Banana or Zucchini image

I got this recipe from my sister-in-law while I was searching for a moist banana bread recipe years ago. She said the buttermilk makes all the difference. After trying a handful of different recipes - I am inclined to agree! The original recipe is for banana bread. I loved it so much I also altered it to make zucchini bread too! This recipe is one of those throw everything in a bowl and mix recipes - which is why I love it. It also freezes very well. **If you don't have buttermilk - plain yogurt can easily be substituted. Use 1/2 cup yogurt with a splash of milk.

This is from Martha Stewart's new Baking Handbook. This is just wonderful. I especially like that it has coconut in it. YUMMY! This makes 2 9 x 5 loaves or 6 mini loaves. If making mini loaves reduce the baking time to 45 minutes.

1/2 c sugar
2 large eggs
3 brown bananas

1 Tbsp ground mulling spices
1 Tbsp cinnamon
