Banana Bread//12 Breads

Ok so technically banana bread isn't bread; but hey who cares about technicalities? It's been a kind of hectic month so I decided to go with something easy - plus with Kris and his chicken pox this was something he could help with.
 
I got a google nexus 7 from my lovely wife for Valentine's Day; so I downloaded the allthecooks app - and it's awesome. The original recipe was in cups (U.S) but pressing one little button changed it to metric, so no more fussing about with conversions:
 I found a recipe that's called Banana Bread 3 and it was nice and easy to make; and fun:
 Here is Kris squishing one of the bananas; we bake together alot - I hope one day he'll bake for his own family (and maybe knit too - one can hope):
 I changed out the white flour and used wholemeal; and I put in almond slivers:
 Here they are after baking; I baked mine in 2 small tins for 30 minutes - although the recipe calls for one large tin for an hour:
This banana bread is gorgeous; it's even really nice the next day - it's tasty and very light!!! Super yummy and I think everyone should make it.
Next month I plan to make bagels...... fun times. What are you baking right now?

  2. My husband made banana bread just the other day! He usually puts in more banana than is called for and uses a 50/50 blend of white and whole wheat flour rather than just white. Personally, I like it for breakfast with peanut butter. Yummy!
