Directions: |
Directions:Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl whisk ½ cup water into the mashed banana. Whisk in the brown sugar, then oil, then eggs until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together remaining dry ingredients, then fold into the banana mixture until just combined. Scrape batter into 3 greased miniature disposable loaf pans or 1 greased 9-inch pan. Bake until firm and golden brown, about 50 minutes for miniature loaves and about 70 minutes for a large loaf.
Let bread stand for a few minutes. Turn onto a wire rack and cool to room temperature. Slice and serve. Recipe doubles easily and freezes well. |

Notes: I am usually making this for Christmas and always double the recipe. The bread freezes very well. I have used loaves over a year old from my freezer and they taste like I made them yesterday. If you are going to freeze them, wrap them first very well in plastic wrap, then again in foil.
You could also add chopped nuts. I suggest 1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped nuts. I prefer pecans over walnuts, in general, but either, lightly toasted, works great. When baking anything, I prefer to use chopped raw nuts and dry toast them in a skillet or in an oven. Don't use salted nuts.
