Elevate Your Banana Bread Game: A Twist with Frozen Bananas
Who doesn’t love the comforting aroma of freshly baked banana bread wafting through the kitchen? But what if I told you there’s a way to take this classic treat to the next level? Today, I’m excited to share with you a banana bread recipe with a delightful twist: using frozen bananas.
My friend Sherry introduced me to this unique method, and I must say, it’s a game-changer. The secret lies in freezing the bananas when they’re perfectly ripe. You have two options: peel them and freeze them or freeze them whole, peel intact. For added convenience, I opted for the latter.
Before diving into the baking process, ensure your frozen bananas are completely defrosted. Once they’re ready, gather your ingredients: one cup of sugar, two eggs, three tablespoons of milk (I prefer extra creamy oat milk for its richness), a quarter cup of melted butter (make sure it’s cooled), one teaspoon of baking soda, and two cups of flour.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, eggs, milk, melted butter, and baking soda. Gradually incorporate the flour until you have a smooth batter. Then, pour the mixture into a loaf pan and pop it into a preheated oven set to 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about an hour.
Now, let’s talk about the taste. The result? Spectacular. The frozen bananas lend a subtle sweetness and a slightly crisp texture to the banana bread, elevating it to new heights of deliciousness. Trust me; once you try this version, you’ll never look back.
