Okay, another banana bread recipe...But maybe the other ones don't have at least one ingredient that this one does...My family loves the muffins from this recipe...especially when I make mini-muffins! (I usually halve the recipe!) Makes 4 loaves or 60 muffins
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups butter or 1 1/2 cups margarine
4 cups sugar
8 eggs
5 cups mashed bananas
1 1/4 cups water
4 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
6 1/2 cups flour
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 cup chocolate chips (optional, but a must for our family!)
Directions:
1. Cream together butter and sugar.
2. Blend in eggs.
3. Add bananas, water, soda, salt, and baking powder.
4. Blend well.
5. Stir in flour.
6. Add nuts and/or chips, if desired.
7. Pour into 4 greased/floured loaf pans or lined muffin tins.
8. Bake at 350: loaves need 35-40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
9. Muffins need only 18-20 minutes.
10. ***With this recipe, I usually always make muffins to cut down bake time.
