The Perfect Way to Start Your Day!

Hello everyone! What do you do with some over ripe bananas that no one in the house wants to look at, much less eat? You make banana nut bread, of course! Today, I'd like to share my favorite banana nut bread recipe with you.
Banana Nut Bread
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped nuts (I like walnuts, but you can use your favorite)
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup mashed banana (I usually add about 3/4 cup cause we really like bananas)
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and nuts in a a bowl. In a seperate bowl, combine eggs, vegetable oil, bananas and vanilla, mixing well. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well. Pour into a nonstick 5 x 9 inch loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 55-65 minutes or until loaf tests done. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
This is such a delicious, moist bread. You can also add a cup of chopped apples to this to make Banana Apple Bread. It's yummy, as well.
Fresh and still warm from the oven, pair it with a cup of coffee and you've got the perfect way to start your day!
Until next time...

  3. I am really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on
    your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself?
    Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it is rare to see a nice blog like this
    one nowadays.

  4. 99, while the Sansa Clip+ has an entry price of $39.

    As we ate, not only did our waitress check back with
    us to see if we required anything further, but the manager stopped
    by as well. If we relate to the recession with fear,
    then it will close us down further.

  5. It is the A Funeral Poem which can lift the soul of these small children, though they may
    not even know what death means. Choosing to
    focus on sound as a restriction increases a poet's powers of observation in melodic structure and the inherit oral aspects of a poem. On the other hand children spend most of their time with their mothers, who love deeply, scold harshly, they worry extremely but in the end they make you what you are.

  10. Better you connect another mouse with your computer. Which means that you will only end up spending $47 on this
    unit. Another great aspect of this remote is that it comes with a recharging dock.

  11. Enjoy the public open-air concept loo and shower area.
    One of the key reasons for this effect is that these types of music utilize a tempo between 55 and 85 beats per
    minute. I would recommend having a Mimosa out on the patio overlooking the
    waterway.
