Banana bread receipe

[Jamiaca_jeff]

I am looking for a receipe for banana bread, just like the banana bread at CocoLaPalm.
If you have had it you know what I'm talking about.
Anybody have one?
Thanks

Coco's banana bread would be hard to replicate. Not sure how they make it. Sometimes I think things just taste better there. Banana bread is so easy to make, though. The key is not letting it overbake, so it stays moist. lots of recipes on the internet. Here is my recipe:

2 cups sugar
2 cups plus 2 tbsp flour
1 cup oil (I use mazola)
4 eggs
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
5 mashed ripe bananas
optional: 1/2 cup nuts and/or 1/2 cups choc. chips
Mix all together and divide into 2 large or 3 small loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for around an hour (check with a toothpick).

Great recipe, but I use whole wheat. Really changes the flavor.

[Maryann]

Great idea! I'll try that.

I could not resist this post! I make my father in-law Banana bread every other week, he loves it sooo much, he has it for breakfast for the week here's my recipe:

2 c unbleached flour mixed with 1 tsp sea salt, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 c sugar
1 stick of unsalted butter ( room temp)
2 large eggs (room temp)
4 mashed ripe bananas mixed with 1 tbls of milk & about 1 tbls of cinnamon
chopped walnuts
[I]pre heat oven to 325, grease or spray some non-stick on a regular sized loaf pan, mash the bananas add the milk and cinnamon set aside, in a large bowl with an electric mixer or by hand, mix the butter and sugar until well blended then add one egg at a time until fluffy. By hand add the flour mixture, add in the banana mixture and walnuts. Once everything is well mixed, pour into loaf pan, depending on your oven, bake for about 55 min-check with a tooth pic and as Maryann states do not over bake [I]

My new favorite is the King Arthur flour double chocolate recipe for banana bread. It has sour cream in it, which makes it really moist.

I'm with King Arthur on this one. I changed my mom's recipe a couple years ago and started adding sour cream. Always moist, doesn't stale.

If you want your banana bread to taste more Jamaican you need to add some Nutmeg, All Spice and Teaspoon of Vanilla.....it makes a huge difference....

I tried Maryann's receipe, used the King Arthur's whole wheat flour, it turned out awesome. Next time I will try Deanna's receipe, also using the King Arthur's flour. Thanks for your recipes.
