    I allow my bananas to ripen until the skin is almost black. I was taught by one of my elders that when you allow your babanas to ripen on your counter like that, the more sugars develop in the fruit. Works every time.

      Thisss! 3 bananas do the job for me and doing the sour cream method is amazing

      Yes! That's what I do. I don't add any refined sugar and it's still sweet as other banana breads 😂

    #1 sounds the best to me. I would add 1/2 cup of toasted pecans or walnuts plus a little cinnamon which are part of my favorite recipe from an old Readers' Digest cookbook.

    No, the sugar and soften butter need to be creamed with the electric beater, it does make a difference.

    I tried the 3rd receipe it came out very nice! Thanks. I reduced sugar to 3/4 cups. Yr description says 1 1/2 cups flour but yr demonstration was 2 cups so i used 2 cups. I liked it cause no gadgets to use! Just simple and straight forward!

    • @GaiaCarney
      @GaiaCarney Месяц назад +2

      @fayeg3026 - I made #3 with reduced sugar, as well! I only used 1 1/2 C flour and it came out perfect! I baked it for 65 mins, but 60 would have left the bread a little less dry 😋

    I always beat the eggs with the sugar at any recipe. It helps to dissolve the sugar. Undisolved sugar flatten the bread/ cake.

    I'm watching from Jamaica and we usually mix the butter and sugar with mixer till it's fluffy. My way is similar to No. 1 banana bread but I add nuts to mine. Best recipe 👌

  • @theknightofie
    @theknightofie Месяц назад +5

    #1 seems the best. Many bananas and brown sugar just makes more sense, adding vanilla to it and brushing some butter on it as soon as it gets out of the over to give it a shiny wet look

  • @warmwoolsoxgood4559

    To swiftly bring chilled eggs to room temperature just add it/them to warm tap water letting them sit for 2-3 minutes. It’s a quick fix that makes the difference. 😊

  • @celestemichon1038

    I’m from 🇺🇸 Texas , I buy the bags of bananas that are a bit more overripe than yours ! This works better when you mash , sweeter taste, plus I add chopped pecans to mine , I let mine get a bit brown on top ! I’ve switched over to buttermilk, my personal preference think it gives it a better taste ! If I don’t have buttermilk just regular I make it by adding lemon or vinegar!

  • @Hollandsemum2
    @Hollandsemum2 Месяц назад +14

    Actually, I always cream the butter and then add the sugar. The butter should be room temperature to begin with (that's why it splattered & didn't work - hard butter is for pastry dough and is cut in not mixed). Start beating the soft butter until it lightens in color then gradually beat in the sugar - until fluffy. The texture will be mixed but look a little like clouds stacked on each other. Then the eggs are beaten in one at a time. The reason for that is so that each is fully incorporated with the butterfat. Every one or two eggs, scrape the bowl, again to ensutre proper incorporation with the butter.
    The above steps mean it will be a fully mixed batter with a light texture before adding leavening.
    In the US, medium bananas are not generally available. So 5 Us bananas makes 2 loaves of banana bread.

    4 super ripe bananas, mix all wet ingredients in Kitchenaid, including the banana chunks. I never bothered to cut and mash bananas - just break them into big chunks by hand and put them into the Kitchenaid. Then mix dry ingredients, just don’t overmix it to prevent gluten. Best banana bread ever.

  • @reesemorgan2259
    @reesemorgan2259 3 дня назад

    I agree about the hand-held electric whisk - I lost quite a bit of butter and sugar that way. I'd already creamed it together with a spoon (the old fashioned way) for a short spell and it still flew away. Eventually I carried on with the electric whisk, cos I was too lazy to persevere with the spoon. However, prepare yourselves accordingly - ensure the butter is very, very soft. That will help a lot. Edit, cos you asked, I'm watching form England. Thanks for doing this.

    I think there are too much added sugar, if you let the banana overripe, it will be sweeter. But I like the sour cream version but I’ll change the white sugar to the brown turbinado and I like nuts.

    Bananas should be very ripe and the use of 3 different dry ingrieidents for different purposes, baking soda, flour and corn flour all will add to the texture. Buttermilk can also replace sour cream or yogurt

    Banana bread is so much better with walnuts (pecans too). I will try the 3rd one because of nuts and the sour cream.
