  • Baking Banana Bread

    3 mushy bananas means… It’s time for Banana Bread.

    Today’s variation:

    • I used whole wheat flour
    • I added 150 grams of plain joghurt
    • I added lots of walnuts (omega 3 for the win)
    • I added nutmeg, kambuzi sauce, and vanilla sugar for taste

    It’s in the oven, baking at a low heat.

  • Yet another banana bread recipe

    This recipe inspired me to carry out another banana bread experiment. I found the recipe on this list of banana bread recipes.

    My variation:
    I used some leftover hazelnut flour and some leftover coconut flour. Added some hazelnuts. And I used sesame oil instead of coconut oil.

    And because I didn’t have any cocoa at home, I skipped the part about adding cocoa and chocolate chips to one part of the cake dough.

    So it’s really a new recipe. A new creation.

    Squishy bananas.

    So I tried to make this:

    Banana Bread Recipe by Simply Recipes.

    But unfortunately, I added a lot of variations. Such as nuts and dried apricots and cocoa. So I can’t really recommend the recipe or write a review. But despite the odds, the result is delicious.

    Just found another banana bread recipe to try out:

  • banana bread experiment

    To get rid of some ripe and mushy bananas*, I decided to bake some banana bread today.

    What I usually do is mix up a basic cake butter and then add 2-3 bananas to the batter. Today has been one big experiment ‘cos I didn’t have some of the ingredients. And I still don’t have a proper measurement jar. But that’s no reason to stop this bucket chemist.

    I’m still waiting to see what the results are like….


    [update]
    Banana bread tastes great… not sweet, lots of natural banana aroma, beautiful and moist. Experiment was a huge success!

    The Recipe:
    400 g flour
    150 g sugar
    1 packet of vanilla sugar (or some drops of vanilla essence)
    3 bananas
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    80 ml oil
    120 ml milk

    Mix everything together starting with the sugar and oil.

    Bake the whole thing very slowly at 150 degrees…

    I added water instead of milk, some cocoa powder, and lots more baking powder (i’m a bucket chemist, i believe in chemical reaction).

    *i hate eating ripe and mushy bananas. I’d rather throw them away. I used to feed my dogs the ripe bananas. But that was in Malawi where bananas are plentiful and cheaper.
