Nope I have never made banana bread never baked any bread I’ve only just about managed to complete an edible box cake I purely watch for the fact that I’d love to bake but can’t for the life of me 😂 baking is too rigid I’m more of a throw in what’s good to eat type cook 😂 I use my over ripe bananas for my dog as his ice cream when it gets hot

it added to my day too. I actually hate it when you tubers tell us to like and subscribe "especially" when weve barely gotten into video. Weve hardly seen anything and theyre telling us to like and subscribe...do they actually think were stupid? And Claire here...thats a wow.
I just made this and it is THEE most amazing banana bread that I've ever tried. Pro tip - if you're pressed on time or if you're patience is short, you can always dump these in a muffin tin and cook them at 350F for 25 minutes. They cool fast and they're already individually portioned if you're trying to bring it to a party.
it's so interesting to hear her talk about spices, for example, and describe how "assertive" they are and the different ways in which they make themselves known (like with the cinnamon and cardamom), it makes me so much more aware of how I taste things
Thank you so much for putting the weight of ingredients in the recipe, I've seen so many recipes online just say '2 ripe bananas' and have had drastically different textures and bake times thanks to it.
I appreciate the authenticity of Claire not liking the coldness of simply saying "like and subscribe" or wanting to do the tired "smash that like button" RUclips schtick. It's honestly refreshing. She'll find something that feels comfortable in time. Until then, no pressure 😊.
@@RedTyrant uh ok, if it's not about Claire I'm kinda wondering what the point of your comment was. Cuz like, nobody asked you lmfao -Nobody is dependent on this channel. Claire is employed. The channel is a side-gig to promote her book/to continue the BA fame. It's even stated in her social media Vinny is the only person who's also involved like, I can think of several other ways how Vinny's work can be paid apart from just the channel's revenue. -You're forcing the narrative that Claire gradually HAS TO say that stupid phrase or otherwise her channel will collapse which is dumb af -You don't even do it in your own channel like boy you weird
I don't know why RUclipsrs still do that. It's insulting. WE KNOW ABOUT IT, OK?? And is blathering on about it going to make anyone do it? We base our "smashing the like button" on whether the video is any good or not, NOT due to their flogging it.
I love this recipe! I'm so happy that Claire started posting these recipes on her channel; it's so much fun to see the process and cross-reference the book at the same time!
Ive made this banana bread nonstop since 2022 and i always make it with wholewheat flour and i kid u not it keeps getting better each time i make it ive made it with peanut putter almond butter hazelnut butter and they r all amazing but my fav is the peanut cus its perfect for the salty nut butter goal and peanut butter is my fav thing ever, ur entire channel is amazing me and my sister obsess over every recipe and ur my go to youtube channel for whenever i feel like baking something and knowing ill love it 💕.
I just made this last weekend and I used all-natural peanut butter instead of almond butter and chocolate chips instead of almonds and OMG so delicious!! My favorite banana bread I’ve made thus far 🤩
This is probably my most baked recipe from dessert person, and I've tried a lot. I come back to every single time. There is a perfect balance of richness to levity in every single slice and I truly don't think I'll ever make another banana bread again (even though almond butter is criminally expensive where I live.)
@@colourmyreflection I have, yeah! I really prefer it with the almond butter. There's something about how delicate the flavour is that allows it to not overpower the banana bread. I found when I baked it with peanut butter that it was almost too strong of a flavour combination, but in a pinch I would say go for it!
Do you use cardamom or cinnamon when you make yours? I am a little nervous about the cardamom I don’t ever cook with it. Will it make a big difference in taste if I do cinnamon instead?
This is a fantastic recipe! I made it early this morning, enjoying it with my morning tea. Light, fluffy, and moist. I didn't have almond butter, but regular peanut butter worked just as well.
tried making it yesterday and it was savory and sweet at the same time. i used peanut butter instead of almond butter and cinnamon powder instead of cardamom. Thanks for this wonderful recipe!
Claire!! Got a question for you, have you ever heard of Banana Bars? They're essentially sweetened banana bread but cooked in a 13x9 like a pan of brownies. Once cooled they are then frosted with cream cheese frosting. Very good, wish more of the world knew about them
I didn't have almond butter and used tahini as a replacement! It was so delicious and you still get the pretty swirl. Been making it this way since. So good. Thanks Claire!
I baked this Almond Butter banana bread. Is so delicious, my family love it. Claire, instead Almond Butter can I use peanut butter. Will there be a lot of different on the taste ? Thanks
I just want to say that I REALLY appreciate you putting in the weight of ingredients in the recipe. So much more precise compared to volumetric measurement!
I tried this as my first ever attempt at baking and it was sooooo good. I can't believe i made something so good. Definitely boosted my confidence to try more baking...
Vinny, no need to apologize for her not saying "like and subscribe", we like her the way she is. Half why I watch is the baking genius (this isn't an exaggeration Claire, you are very amazing), and the other half is the attitude: "No, don't make me conform to actions that aren't authentic please and thank you".
@@rachellauryn9547 Seriously though, people shouldn't replace their prescribed antidepressants with anything without the recommendation of their psychiatrist. Depression is dangerous enough on its own.
banana bread will always have a moment. There is not stopping the banana bread train. It's been running for decades, it will never stop. This train includes zucchini bread, and all variants with chocolate chips.
Hello, Claire I made this yesterday and I have to tell you it is the best ever. I used freshly milled soft white wheat so I increased the amount to 1 and 2/3 cups. I do not care for peanut butter so the almond paste is perfect for me. Btw, my Granddaughter goes to Captain elementary. We are Claytonians. I love your book and knew I would use It so I bought the spiral.bound to add to my collection. Best of everything to you!
I made this yesterday for my mom and she loved it! The bread was moist and not overwhelmingly sweet. I did a little twist to it cuz I didn’t have almond butter so I used peanut butter instead, it was still tasty anyway (u can’t go wrong with bananas and peanut butter, right?) Thank you so much for the recipe!
Claire's "Easy, quick, delicious comforting, freezable, sharable, delicious!" at 00:29 has the same energy as Lady Gaga's "talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before" and I'm here for itttttt.
I totally agree with Claire regarding how a topping should reflect what’s inside. I was at a well known bakery in San Fran and ordered a cupcake garnished with white buttercream and a slice of candied lemon but on the inside was coconut with a piña colada flavored custard in the centre. I was so confused😵💫
Thank you for giving a Grams measurement for the bananas! So many recipes just state no. Of Bananas which is confusing because they do differ in size quite a bit...
Right? I tend to let them get totally black before I even think about making banana bread. And that doesn't happen too often because I will eat them very late in their lives.
Banana Bread is so perfect. Got old bananas? Want something delicious? Something sweet but not too sweet? You got it. Also add walnuts! They make a beautiful texture and add a delicious taste
This is my first time here and I have to say I love your vibe and I’m now subscribed lol also your intro is literally the cutest! Thank you for this recipe I’m about to try it!🫶🏻
This recipe is the best. I made it with leftover peanut butter (less than listed), adding also less sugar and less oil, just cause I felt like it. I also did not have coconut oli and swapped it with sunflower oil. Turned out perfectly fine and deliciuos.
made this recipe with things i had on hand (substituted by equal weight measurements!!): swapped the almond butter for chunky peanut butter, swapped the coconut oil for melted unsalted butter, swapped the greek yoghurt for creme fraiche, swapped the cardamom for cinnamon (i just winged this one), and my eggs were room temp (not cold from the fridge). didnt add the extra nuts coz my peanut butter was chunky! turned out absolutely perfect! moist yet fluffy and the smell is soooo mesmerising ♡ not to sweet and just an overall great plus flexible recipe ◡̈ as expected from claire!!
Ooh that sounds so yummy! Reminds me of the these incredible pumpkin chocolate chip bars my sister made years ago. If you like pumpkin, you’d probably like something like that too!
Claire, you’re an angel and I love your very intentional and thoughtful process. At the end there is always joy and that is what I have needed lately. I’m a math/science nerd in a creative industry and you give me validation and reassurance. Thank you
Thanks for the recipe! Just made this yesterday and it turned out quite nice! Perfectly balanced flavor, great cake-like texture, nice crumb. I also had to bake for 70 mins. My substitutions: 1.added 1/2 tsp cinnamon to the topping and used turbinado sugar for that, wanting to give the topping a richer flavor (it worked nicely); 2. used honey greek yogurt because it was what I had (it worked fine); and 3. I doubled the amount of cardamom (1/2 teaspoon instead of 1/4 teaspoon listed) because I like my spices to be prominent on the palate. It was still quite subtle -- if I made this again I would go with a full teaspoon!
Once the bananas get very, very ripe (like nearly all brown), I toss them into a ziplock bag and put into the freezer. When ready to make banana bread, the defrosted bananas are super easy to practically pour into the bowl for mixing.
Another great video from Claire. I'm really not a big banana bread fan but with the addition of the almond butter I may try this. I so enjoy when she shows her cats at the end. Can't wait for the next one.
i just made two banana bread by doubling the recipe. it was so yum though my almond butter is not enough for both batter but still amazingly yummy. Not overly sweet and you can really taste banana in the background. The sweet salty crunchy almond butter swirl on top makes the banana bread a stand out. Delicious! Thanks for the amazing recipe.
Claire just-barely-tolerating doing the RUclips outro is one of my fave things on this channel. I IMMEDIATELY noticed that she seemed kinda okay with it in this video. I'm hoping it's just the banana bread, I love the deadpan endings after the cozy vibes.
Alright show of hands... Who made Banana Bread in 2020? Give this version a try and let me know what you think!
Claire I make banana bread at least once a month... pandemic or otherwise
I tried several last year--some with chocolate chips, some not--before getting your book. Each time, the aroma throughout the house made me considerably happier than the final product...until I tried your recipe!
✋ Made it, loved it. Making it again this weekend. It's winter where I am so it's great to have toasted with a little butter.
I've made it recently.
Best thing for overripe bananas.

I use my over ripe bananas for my dog as his ice cream when it gets hot
The mere concept of "breakfast dessert" has reignited my will to live.
Hearing that made me realize that I had breakfast dessert today. One of Claire's forever brownies, no less!
As an Italian, I can't have a salty breakfast. Breakfast dessert are the best: pies, croissants, brownies...
Just skip breakfast altogether; go straight to the sweet stuff.
Leftover birthday cake breakfast will change your life
a blueberry fritter will knock your socks off...had one from the farmers market today

Why not make your own almond butter.
Do you use cardamom or cinnamon when you make yours? I am a little nervous about the cardamom I don’t ever cook with it. Will it make a big difference in taste if I do cinnamon instead?
Do you always use coconut oil? I want to make this today but only have avocado oil.

Loved this recipe when I made it. I've got some bananas to use up so I think this will be my weekend bake for this week.
I melted half a stick of butter till it browned and used that instead of almond butter and coconut oil tasted great

I do not care for peanut butter so the almond paste is perfect for me. Btw, my Granddaughter goes to Captain elementary. We are Claytonians.

Does everyone's thumbnail for the video look like Claire's leaning on a slice of banana bread? 😂
I was wondering if anyone was going to mention the thumbnail lmao
Bananas are my favorite fruit, I love this recipe. The almonds give a nice crunch and the flavor combo is wonderful.
I made this yesterday for my mom and she loved it! The bread was moist and not overwhelmingly sweet. I did a little twist to it cuz I didn’t have almond butter so I used peanut butter instead, it was still tasty anyway (u can’t go wrong with bananas and peanut butter, right?) Thank you so much for the recipe!
what if both are not available ? is it okay to make it that way then ?
Just made this (with a few minor twists and, sadly, omissions) and WOW. I’m truly amazed by how delicious this is.
how will i know what to do if claire doesnt tell me to smash that like buttton tho :(
Love love love this recipe. I make french toast with the leftovers!!!. Thank you for this recipe and book.
or grilled with butter if it is a few days old. grill on both sides.
I just made this and it maybe the weed taking here but this is the most delicious thing I've made haha ty!
Claire doesn’t even need to ask us to smash the like button cuz she knows that we will. A Queen never has to ask!

Thank you for giving a Grams measurement for the bananas! So many recipes just state no. Of Bananas which is confusing because they do differ in size quite a bit...
LOVE that you teach us Why each ingredient is used and how it can be substituted with something else :)
it is hilarious that that is what Claire considers an "overripe banana"
Could be worse, I consider every banana that is not still slightly green overripe. I really can't deal with the mushy texture.
Right? I tend to let them get totally black before I even think about making banana bread. And that doesn't happen too often because I will eat them very late in their lives.
bananas super ripe (when it blackens) is usually kinda nasty tho cuz it'll taste a lil fermenty
first piece...fantastic! I'll make this recipe again...gonna add some walnuts next time too. Thankyou for the recipe.
