Banana Bread





For this Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a day Braid we were to make berry bread and banana bread, I must confess with traveling and family here I have got out the loop with the bread making group. But I just had to try this bread. I liked it loved the banana flavor and great with a cup of tea. Again quite a dense bread and hubby didn't like it nor did his Mum. Its hard to make bread when I am the only one who likes it.

Do any of you awesome folks have links to an easy bread recipe with kneading involved so I can compare the two for my own piece of mind?

  2. I would check out the King Arthur Flour website for some great links! I'm beginning to give up more and more on this no-knead bread as well...it's easy to mix but so hard to work with! The banana bread looks good though. I didn't get around to trying it but it's on my list.

  5. I made mine early and froze the large loaf and am still eating it every few days for breakfast. I am still not sure how much I like it. It tastes healthy :) I guess my family thought they were getting a cakey kind of banana bread and its definitely more a bread banana flavoured :)

  6. I ended up adapting the buttermilk bread from ABin5 to make the banana bread and I got a pretty good bread.

  20. I guess you can see that I gave up a while ago as well on most of the HBin5. I love to make bread and make it all the time, the old fashioned way. I need to look through my own site and see what recipes I have up. I do think that the first book, Artisan Bread was great and worked really well. Don't give up all together, baking homemade bread isn't hard.

  21. i dont like to eat banana, but i love everything that is cooked with banana ... so this bread is right up my alley .. yum!

  22. It looks tasty. Was this a yeasted bread? All of my banana bread recipes are quick bread recipes.

  23. I can't get my family to eat the latest breads from HBin5. It's depressing to go to all the work and not have anyone like them. I haven't been baking as many of the assignements because I end up throwing them away. Technically they work, but no one likes the flavors. Yours looks wonderful to me.

  26. I think with banana breads we are all used to the batter ones, which are quite moist and sweet. After reading the other's comments about this bread I decided not to make it. The mixed berry bread I made came out OK, but don't know if I would make it again.

  27. Hi, I think I would prefer the quick bread banana bread. As a whole, I think I like the first bread better. I sometimes wonder if they had a few good whole wheat recipes and then had to fill up the rest of the pages for the book with breads like these.

    My husband did like them as muffins for his morning snack.

    I do like your picture! Adding the bananas framed it well.
