Thanks for the link to the video Mama. What's the white bit in the middle of your banana bread slice?
I was beginning to suspect why my banana bread was so good. I have been using only frozen bananas for the past 10 years or so. My recipe calls for 1.25 cups of banana. That's usually 5 frozen bananas. They shrivel a bit and a lot of frost develops in the bag, that must be moisture escaped from the 'nanas.
Next time I will peel the 'nanas into a colander and reduce the liquid.
I personally think freezing is easier than all that fussing with the microwave. Of course, I almost always have some frozen 'nanas in the freezer. We never seem to finish them before they are too ripe. Well, actually I buy enough to save some for 'nana bread. I let them get really, really ripe before I freeze them.
Thanks Ma for that link to the banana bread. I will make it as soon as I have six brown bananas in the house.
I have some real ripe banana's in the freezer at work I will try it then.Thanks Ma for that link to the banana bread. I will make it as soon as I have six brown bananas in the house.
I saw an episode of ATK the other day where they made the ultimate banana bread so I thought that I would give it a try. Okay, so now it's my new banana bread recipe. It is so full of banana flavor! It is amazing!!!! Not that my old banana bread recipe was bad but this is just incredible. It's a little more work than regular banana bread since you use more bananas (6 large for one loaf), you have to microwave them, strain and then take the juice and reduce it in a saucepan. It really concentrates the banana flavor.
Dessert was apple crisp (granny smith apples, lemon zest, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, raisins, walnuts, pinch salt, Splenda brown sugar and melted butter) topped with blended butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, pinch salt and uncooked rolled oats)
Thank you Z. But that is the basic recipe. Baked at 375F on convection bake. I don't measure anything except it was 6 apples and 1 nice size lemon. I will try to work up a recipe but it may be a day or so. Please remind me.That topping looks soooo good. Would you post the whole recipe, please?
Taxlady, that's butter.
