BASIC BANANA BREAD

INGREDIENTS

ALL PURPOSE FLOUR: 1 1/2 CUP
SUGAR: 1/2 CUP or 1 CUP
BANANAS : 3 FULLY RIPE (The riper, the better)
EGG: 1 ( Beat it with a Fork)

BASIC BANANA BREAD



MAKING

Take a bowl, mash the bananas with hand thoroughly. Add all the ingredients mentioned above except Pecans. Mix it well and pour the batter in a loaf pan. Add Chopped Pecans on top. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour.

Remove from the oven and allow it to cool. Turn the loaf pan over and carefully remove the Banana Bread and serve it with either whipped cream or eat it just as it is.


TIPS/VARIATIONS

I usually add just 1/2 cup sugar but if you feel the bananas aren't sweet enough, you could add a cup of sugar.

If you want to make an Eggless version, instead of 1 egg, add 1/4th cup of condensed milk. So it would be 3/4th cup Sugar plus 1/4th Condensed Milk.

if you don't have Lemons or do not like Lemon Zest. You can add Vanilla essence to it.

Lemon Zest is nothing but scraping the lemon exterior. This adds a nice flavor to the Banana Bread.
