Banana Bread with King Arthur Flour-Soooooo Delicious


Do you call it a bushel or bundle? I had over 5 bushels of bananas that I had collected that were going brown and Gluten-Free King Arthur Flour. This was my first time making GF banana bread-I'd always had a great bread my Mom makes and I was set out to try this new recipe with GF flour. The recipe was absolutely great and so I quadrupled the recipe and gave it a shot-and t was sooooooooo tasty! I urge you to try it!

  • Prep time: 5 minutes
  • Cook time: 1 hour
  • 3 or 4 ripe bananas, smashed
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup sugar (can easily reduce to 3/4 cup)----I substituted brown sugar for more flavor
  • 1 egg, beaten

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour

METHOD

No need for a mixer for this recipe. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). With a wooden spoon, mix butter into the mashed bananas in a large mixing bowl. Mix in the sugar, egg, and vanilla. Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture and mix in. Add the flour last, mix. Pour mixture into a buttered 4x8 inch loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a rack. Remove from pan and slice to serve.
