Description

This is the most delicious banana bread recipe I’ve found. The bread part is delicious, but the best part is the topping. My husband doesn’t like bananas and he eats a mini loaf in one sitting – maybe more!! It’s great with a cold glass of milk! The only downside is that it is only for mini loaf pans.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Eggs
  • ¾ cups Oil
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ¾ cups Sugar
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 3 whole Bananas, Mashed
  • FOR THE TOPPING:
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • ¼ cups Butter, Softened
  • 1 pinch Cinnamon
  • ½ cups Chopped Pecans

Preparation

Mix all the ingredients together except for the topping. Pour 1/2 full in greased mini loaf pans. Mix topping ingredients and pour on top of dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes, depending on your oven. It makes 4-5 mini loaf pans depending on the size of your loaf pans.

A small tip: when my bananas start to go bad, I put them in the freezer where they turn almost black. You can save them and use them for a while after. I thaw 3 out for this recipe and mash them and I think it’s way better than fresh bananas!

I also think this would would be good with mini chocolate chips.

Enjoy!

Made this bread last night. It is wonderful! The topping makes it even better.

Very good! I made some changes to it, though. I added about 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg to give it some spice. I also didn’t bother with the topping cause I just wanted to eat it right away! I used a regular sized loaf pan, poured all the batter in one, and it was done in 45 minutes. Delicious and moist with that signature banana flavor!
