Whole Wheat Banana Bread with Honey
This recipe came from Whole Food for the Whole Family put out by La Leche League International. I found some of the directions time wasting and unnecessary. I doubled the batch as it seemed silly to make only one large loaf for my family. You can add nuts too, but I don’t usually. Here’s my adaptation of the recipe. It makes yummy, moist bread. Be aware, it will be eaten very quickly!!
Whole Wheat Banana Bread
Ingredients:
* 1 cup Honey
* 2/3 cup Canola Oil
* 4 Eggs
* 2 cups Bananas, mashed (about 6 med.)
* 1/2 cup Water
* 3 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
* 1 tsp. Sea Salt
* 2 tsp. Baking Soda
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Mix honey and canola oil together until well blended. Add eggs and mix. Stir in bananas and water. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Pour in 3 greased loaf pans. Bake for 50-60 minutes. Bread is done when toothpick or knife inserted into the middle comes out clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve.
Options: Add 1 cup nuts to make banana nut bread. Walnuts are a typical ingredient in banana nut bread.
