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.
