Who does not love a simple Banana Bread, this has been baking in my house for don't know how long, this was the second bread I learnt to bake the first was chocolate cake. I love when bananas turn black cause then I know exactly what I want to do with them. We have been baking them egg less since mama does not eat anything that contains egg. This is my mama's recipe this is how I learnt it and this is how I always bake it every single time and yet not so bored of it.

This is my entry to NQN’s Banana Bread bakeoff event!






Ingredients
1 cup sugar ( I use 3/4 cup if I am using Indian granulated Sugar)
3 bananas
4 tbsp melted unsalted butter
2 tbsp yogurt/curds/dahi
1 and 1/2 cup all purpose flour (Maida)
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla essence / extract
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Method

  1. Pre Heat oven to 350 degree Fahrenheit / 180 degree centigrade
  2. Mash the bananas, add sugar, yogurt and mix.
  3. With a hand beater add butter, salt, and flour till incorporated. (You can just mix them in too)
  4. Mix the Baking Soda with the milk and add it to the above mix along with the vanilla essence.
  5. Mix in the walnuts and stir till everything is well blended.
  6. Pour this batter in a greased bread tin and bake for about 50-60 minutes or till a tooth pick inserted comes out dry.

Hi,

Thanks for posting the eggless banana bread recipe. Can I use wheat flour instead of maida? And is it required to grind the sugar to a fine powder and then measure or can I use granulated sugar as per measure given by you?

I tried last weekend and my banana bread did not turn out all that well. It was some other recipe, I followed. It became soft and doesn't look like bread. But the taste was good. I like to use wheat flour instead of maida.

Thanks again!

Hi Medha,
Just wanted to give you a suggestion. You can add 1/2 tsp baking soda and 1 tsp baking powder as well. It bakes well with this proportion.
