Re: banana bread
This is my favorite banana bread recipe... sometimes I slice it like a pound cake and top with a sauce (carmel sauce, melted raspberry jam, runny whipped cream... ) to make an easy dessert - this recipe does have nuts, but you can just leave them out. Alternative measurement metrics are in parens.
1/2 cup butter (4 ounces, 118 ml)
1 cup sugar (8 ounces, 237 ml)
2 large eggs
1 tsp baking soda (0.2 ounces, 5 ml)
1/2 tsp salt (0.1 ounce; 2.5 ml)
1/2 cup banana yogurt (4 ounces, 118 ml)
1 tsp banana extract (0.2 ounces, 5 ml)
1 1/2 cups bananas, mashed (12 ounces, 355 ml)
1/2 cup nuts, chopped (4 ounces, 118 ml)
Preheat oven to 350 F (177 C). Cream butter, eggs, sugar & bananas. Mixed dry ingrediants. Add to butter mixture alternately with yogurt, extract and nuts. Pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour or until tester comes out clean.
