Joyces Unbeatable Banana Bread Recipes

JOY'S EASY BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Combine bananas, sugar, egg, and butter together in a bowl. Mix flour and baking soda together in a separate bowl; stir into banana mixture until batter is just mixed. Stir salt into batter. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean, about 1 hour.

JOYCE'S UNBEATABLE BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Grease and flour one regular loaf pan or two small loaf pans.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Combine flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and shortening. Cut shortening in as for pie crust (I use a pastry blender.).
• In a separate bowl, beat eggs and sliced bananas until mixed well.
• Add banana mixture to shortening mixture and mix well.
• Place batter in prepared pan(s).
• Bake approximately 30 minutes.
• Tip: I usually use the toothpick test, but the toothpick should not come out completely clean. This is a very moist recipe, so look for the toothpick or knife to be mostly clean. When the bread is done, it will be a dark brown and should have a slight crack down the middle.
