Recipe from Penzeys Spices winter 2009 catalog. I haven't made this but I want it in my cookbook so I'm posting it.
Ingredients:
2 cups unbleached flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup walnuts (optional) or 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped (optional)
3/4 cup mini chocolate chip (optional)
1 1/2 cups bananas, very ripe and well mashed (3 bananas)
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
6 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F Grease a large 9x5 loaf pan and set aside.
2. Stir the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, nuts and chocolate chips together in a large bowl and set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, mix the mashed bananas, yogurt, eggs, butter and vanilla together.
4. Lightly fold the banana mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined and the batter looks thick and chunky.
5. Spoon the batter into the loaf pan and smooth the surface with a spatula.
6. Bake at 325°F until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 70-75 minutes.
7. Cool in the pan for about 5 minutes and then turn out and let cool on a wire rack.
