Banana Bread



Banana bread is made with a thick, sweet and sticky batter full of mashed bananas, and this is all that! The scent of this bread baking is heavenly. In addition, it can be considered to be healthy because butter has been replaced with oil. You can add chopped chocolate or nuts to the batter as well; but this is the moist, unadulterated version. Recipe credit goes to Varun’s mother – Vaneeta.

Ingredients –
·         2 cups Flour
·         1 cup Sugar
·         ½ cup Oil
·         1 tbsp ground Cinnamon
·         ¼ tsp Salt
·         2 tsp Baking Powder
·         2 Eggs
·         2 cups mashed Bananas

Mix all the wet ingredients in one bowl and the dry in another. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and combine until they are just about incorporated. Mixing too much will make the banana bread tough and dry.

Preheat the oven to 170C; pour the batter into a greased loaf tin and bake for 25-30 minutes or till a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Note – you can also divide the batter into 12 cupcake cases and bake for 10-15 minutes to get moist banana cupcakes.
