Loaded with banana flavor and just the right hint of maple, this old-fashioned walnut-topped loaf is easy to prepare and tastes wonderful warm from the oven. I sent a loaf of this bread to work with my husband, and his co-workers loved it, relates Amy Hawk of Seabrook, New Jersey. Ingredients:
1-3/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup sugar |
1/3 cup packed brown sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoons salt |
2 eggs |
1 cup mashed ripe banana (2 to 3 medium) |
3 tablespoons butter, melted |
2 tablespoons fat-free milk |
1/4 teaspoon maple flavoring |
1/4 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Combine the eggs, bananas, butter, milk and flavoring; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Spoon into an 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with walnuts. 2. Bake at 350° for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Yield: 1 loaf. |
