Briggi's Astounding Banana Bread

"I’d like to share a very simple banana bread recipe with you. I’ve probably made this recipe at least 100 times, which is a totally scary thought! It comes from Sally Sampson’s super-useful and sadly out-of-print cookbook, The Bake Sale Cookbook: Quintessential American Baking (Simon & Schuster). The technical title is “Paige’s Astounding Banana Bread.”"

directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • Grease a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan. In a medium bowl, mash the bananas with the sugar, then mash in the butter or oil.
  • Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
  • Mix the flour with the baking soda and salt and add them to the bowl.
  • Mix just until the ingredients are blended.
  • Scrape the batter into the loaf pan and bake until the banana bread is well-browned and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes, then unmold and let cool to warm before eating.
