Good morning all you bakery lovers. Today we will be talking about banana bread. At the MF Headquarters, we decided to make a banana loaf and we were mesmerised at how much impact the implementation of our MF Cinnamon and Nutmeg had on the taste of the bread. In a climate where it’s constantly raining and riddled with freezing conditions, we often find ourselves stuck in the house with nothing to do and making banana bread could be a perfect way to entertain ourselves during the day.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 4 very ripe bananas
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 teaspoon MF Cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon MF Nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Method:
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 8 by 3-inch loaf pans. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda then set aside.
2) Mash the bananas, eggs, sugar, MF Cinnamon, salt, MF Nutmeg, and cloves together in a large bowl with a fork until well combined. Stir in the melted butter and vanilla extract, then fold in the flour mixture until a batter forms and no dry lumps remain. Pour into the prepared loaf pans.
3) Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
