Cookery- Moist Banana Bread- Diva's Can Cook

Posted on 10:47 AM by john cena

Moist Banana Bread…My New Fav!
Ok so a few years ago I posted an old-fashioned banana bread recipe that is great!! It’s moist, dense and just lovely.

Then a viewer sent me a recipe for bakery-style banana bread that knocked my socks off.  It was so fluffy, sweet,  moist and full of banana flavor. So my search for the perfect banana bread should be over right? Never!!

Today I was craving banana bread but I wanted it to be EVERYTHING that these two recipes had. I wanted that old fashioned cinnamon-brown sugar-banana flavor, I wanted it to have that light crunch on the outside yet crazy moist, fluffy, & dense on the inside.

That’s not asking for too much right? With a little tweaking I combined the two banana bread recipes on my site and out came this beauty.
The perfect banana bread. My search is over. This is my favorite banana bread…. for now : )

It’s everything that I’ve ever wanted in a banana bread and I couldn’t wait to share it with you all. I hope that you enjoy it as much as we have because I made it at 12 pm. and there is one more slice left at 7:41 pm and it’s that end slice. The one that’s not nearly as much fun as the inside slices. I still plan on hiding it and eating it with a hot cup of coffee though.

I just love that this bread has buttermilk in it. Something about buttermilk in quick breads just makes it so moist and adds great flavor. If I had some black walnuts I’d throw them in there as well. So yum!!

If you’re the type that likes to bake up quick breads and take them into work or give them away as gifts this is the recipe you want to use. It has crowd-pleaser written all over it and tastes  ever better the next day and is much sweeter the next day as well!

Moist Banana Bread

Cook time
1 hour 10 mins
Total time
1 hour 10 mins

Serves: Makes 1 loaf

Ingredients
(All ingredients should be room tempt.)
3 large extra ripe bananas (1½ cups mashed)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup white sugar
½-3/4 cup brown sugar (I used ½ cup)
8 tablespoons butter, softened ( 1 stick)
2 eggs, beaten
1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup buttermilk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325.
Grease and flour a loaf pan.
In a medium size bowl, mash bananas until creamy and stir in lemon juice. Set aside.
In a medium size bowl, whisk together flour,baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars.
Beat in the eggs until combined.
Fold in the bananas.
Add in the vanilla extract and buttermilk.
Beat until combined.
Add the dry mixture into the wet mixture.
STIR GENTLY AND JUST UNTIL THE FLOUR IS INCORPORATED. DO NOT OVER STIR.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Bake on center rack for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Cooking times may vary. Check on bread at the 1 hour mark. Toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean and bread should be golden on the outside.
Brush the top of the bread with butter if desire when it comes out of the oven.
Let cool for 5 minutes and then remove the bread from the pan and place on a cooling rack to finish cooling.
Slice and enjoy! (flavors will intensify the next day)
Notes

 easy moist banana bread recipe
 *It is super important that you do not over stir the batter or it will turn out dry and tough. Stir just very gently and just until the flour is incorporated.

 *Taste even better the next day!! Banana flavor is much stronger.

 *Cooking times can vary. Check on the bread after an hour or a little before.

 *Add walnuts or chocolate chips if desired.
