You're not making it right if you have to put *anything* on it. [:/]

I thought this was going to be about EATING overripe bananas...nasty! >:( I used to eat yellow bananas, but now they have to be half green because I like the more mild flavor.

I made 2 loaves of banana bread last week, but they were only okay>:(. ( I told someone it had extra love in it, so it was going to be GOOD banana bread. Guess I lied about that. :|) I always try different recipes so I can find "THE PERFECT ONE."

I made these loaves with brown sugar instead of white, and I think that's why the loaves weren't that great. B|

My step mom had the most incredible banana bread recipe. It had a crispy top that broke open and was goey inside the cracked area. Nice and moist with great flavor and texture. Walnuts for extra zing. :)
My dad was an idiot and in one of his fits of rage threw out all her recipes. She had a lot of wonderful recipes that I haven't been able to find/recreate.:(

Now I'm hungry just thinking about food.

The loaves I just made use brown sugar and its very good... but it also uses butter... (which might be part of it...

I did make a change to use half King Arthur - White Whole Wheat Flower...

but I don't expect much of a difference...

I'm with you on the bananas though... to eat them plainly I like them just turning yellow... but its ok I like to make banana bread... :)
allrecipies.com has a page of like 80 different banana breads... B| that should keep you busy for a while...

...and the thing I love most about banana bread, is the cute little brown wormy squiggles in the bread!!! :D:):$

Yes, I am a dork, I think the squiggles in banana bread are cute. :|

Sure... but I'm sure your dorkyness is appreciated... ;)

My brother is a fantastic baker. On the rare occasions that I get to visit him he's always got some flavor of bread that I never knew existed but can't see how I ever lived without.:)Different varieties of banana bread are always good. Don't think I've ever tasted a bad one.:)

So when are bananas too ripe for sweet bread? When they turn fuzzy?

that's not ripe... that's gross.. :D:D



I agree with you there, but I have known people to scrape fuzzies off things like bread and cheese :o[:/]. Maybe I'm a picky eater, but if part of the loaf or block is bad, the whole thing gets tossed :|.
