Such a treat and honor to have you to ourselves her on RUclips.. 🙏 chef .. Does Sir Winston have a living breathing brother /friend that stays with you and family at home .. while Winston guards the kitchen??
Are there any foods you don't like? If so, how do you work w/ ingredients you don't like? I don't care how bananas are cooked, baked or served, I still hate them.
The only chef I watch for his own character... The recipies are great but your personality distracts me and I like to listen to your words and beautiful English... Greetings from Syria...
Chef.. Have you made the Queens fruit cake before? Would you consider making one for us and telling us about it’s history?? As it’s almost Christmas 🎄 time and that’s the best time for fruit cake.. thank you chef.. Cooking with Winston is fun. Love his version of banana in the bread 😆 🐾🍌
@@Darren_McGrady oh perfect. That’s something I’d like to make and know more about it and the Queen serving it and why they serve it etc.. and doesn’t she mail slices of it out after it sets for half a decade? .. an have you had any of her fruit cake?? I hope Winston makes one to 😉😆😆 .. 🐾💕🐾
I have made this about 4 times now and substituted apricots for the raisins and dried cranberries for the cherries only because I was out of those items. This is simple and delicious and everyone I give it to wants more and more! Thanks Darrin!
Such an interesting banana bread with the extra fruits! My old standby is my grandmother's 1960 Ladies Home Journal Cookbook recipe. So easy and do it sometimes in a loaf, sometimes in muffins, but so good :)
I remember my grandad telling me a story of the first time he saw bananas sold in the UK. They were very rare when he was young and weren't nearly as readily available as they are now. As a result, many people never saw or tasted one. Because of this, they didn't know how to peel it so he recalled watching lots of people biting into bananas, skin and all!
I consider myself an American Anglophile and adore the Queen (and share a birthday with her!). I found your channel after watching lovely videos of Her Majesty and the family. Your sense of humor and quirkiness set you apart from just your “average Joe” chef. Your stories are endearing and so special. I love the one about you running from the corgis. 🤣 Thank you for your channel, chef.
Banana bread is one of the dishes I need to make for my exams, under the cakes, biscuits and scone Category, I Will be sure to try this recipe, perfect timing thank you Chef!
Best trick I use is to add a very ripe mashed pear. It doesn't taste much like pear when it's done, but it intensifies the banana taste and makes it really moist.
I love some Banana bread. This one is very different from the kind my southern mother makes but still looks very good. She adds more kinds of nuts and less of the dried fruit. It's really hard to mess up Banana Bread. Another fun one I like is Pumpkin Bread this time of year. With toasted pumpkin seeds on top. It reminds me of Pumpkin Pie only with the texture of Banana bread.
Really enjoying your videos. Have you ever tried Zucchini bread? A great way to use up an abundance of zucchini’s/courgettes. Like banana bread but with walnuts. Then there is carrot cake....
New subscriber here, Darren. LOVE your video's, recipe's, and Royal Family tidbits. And, I absolutely love England, especially London. Have spent a good deal of time there. Am a huge fan of all things British, and am so glad to have discovered you on RUclips🥰
Mine just came out the oven and it is the best! It’s the third time I’ve made it - it’s that good! Two suggestions and tweaks I’ve discovered while experimenting: -100g instead of 170g sugar. I found that the dried fruit and overripe bananas add lots of sweetness and prefer for them to not be overpowered by the sugar -100g Frozen whole cherries instead of dried cherries - the moisture added and flavor is spectacular. It was slightly on the dry side without the moisture of the frozen cherries
Looks like Winston created a new dish, perhaps....Banana in the Hole?! New subscriber from the States ~very fun channel! I'm (sort of) trying Queen Elizabeth R's Fish and Chips, with oven frying the chips, too:). I've used the Joy of Cooking banana bread recipe for years. Your hand-mixing of the butter and use of golden raisins and dried cherries looks quite luscious ~ Wisconsin-appropriate, which is where I live (cherries are prolific in Door County; lots of ctanberries in western WI, which might also be tasty!). Thank you so much for sharing your unique and fascinating stories and expertise!
Exactly what I needed to see after a long busy day. Love the cooking Winston! Also, the history lesson was neat to hear. But what made folks seek an ingredient to cause dough to fluff and rise; how did they know that was an option?
secondary comment: I live in Montreal. We have a renowned hotel "The Queen Elizabeth". They make a banana bread that is pretty famous, the chef that put it on the menu, had cooked for the royal family while they were touring Canada and he served this banana bread. (it's all in a book about the history of the Queen Elizabeth Hotels cafe, The Beaver Club) the recipe sounds ridiculous, but is the best banana bread I have ever had...I'll post it here (take a look at the amount of baking soda, haha, but it works like a charm), my Father-in-Law taught me a trick with it I use half cup of creme fraiche and half cup of buttermilk, makes the bread taste so much better: 1 pound (about 4) very ripe bananas 2 1/4 cups sugar 7 teaspoons baking soda (I am not kidding 7tsp. is correct!!!) 1/4 teaspoon salt 4 eggs 3 1/4 cups flour 1 cup buttermilk (you can sour normal milk with either vinegar or lemon juice) 1/2 cup vegetable oil
Dear Mr McGrady, Thank you for another great video. Could you please mention the temperature of the oven in Celsius too, as some people (and ovens) speak only Celsius! Kindest regards! 🌺🌺🌺
ROFL at Winston's Banana Bread!! That is just too funny!! I LOVE Banana Bread but always leave out the raisins - no thank you! I always make quick breads to give out for Christmas gifts. They love it! I'm absolutely loving your videos! One question though - why is your first book so expensive compared to the other ones? It's just way too much for my budget - $120 on Amazon??? :-(
i agree with you about the black bananas being the best for banana bread !! When i have extra, i freeze them and they keep on ripping there, i keep all the juice when they thaw..... i love adding raisins, nuts and even coconut in it at times !! i made it for years with butter ( my fountain pen scribed recipe was all blotched) until i ate an even better slice than mine and switched to oil to this day ( and i still have my turquoise ink recipe in my book ;-) ) yum yummy !! I'm too lazy and thrifty for the parchment paper, yet it's a good idea !! merci !! oh, some like choc chips in it too~
Banana bread stores? And you chill it in the fridge? Not in my house. As soon as it is cool enough to slice, it is being consumed. There are no left-overs for the fridge or to go stale for french toast. It's really good with vanilla ice cream on top.
I tried your recipe but I forgot to use self rising flour and used the regular flour and I don’t use baking powder but it looks ok. I’ll have it in the morning for breakfast.
Hi Darren, great recipe I can’t Waite to make it. Love your channel makes me miss home. I live in Alberta, Canada and love your tea cup where did you get it? Take care for now Darren, cheers. Andrew
OMGoodness!!!!! In most banana recipes, especially here in the US, it is wet combined into the dry then baked. You did something completely different here. It was almost as if you were making biscuits/scones???? Very unique for us in america. I have to tell you that I cannot wait to create this banana bread. it looks absolutely delicious!!!!!
The best banana bread recipe I have ever made,is from the Kona Inn,Hawaii.Extremely ripe bananas,lots of butter,it is an amazing recipe.Her Majesty would adore it.
@4:04 is where most Americans go “nooooooo!!!” 😉 generally, raisins aren’t in our style of banana bread but I think it sounds good. I think the most common American addition to it are walnuts or pecans. One of the best tips I’ve ever come across is to use 4-5 bananas and to cut down on the moisture, you simmer the bananas once mashed till they evaporate about 1/2 the liquid- makes a very rich banana flavour as well as I brown the butter before adding.
I'm really surprised you didn't use muscovado sugar or golden granulated sugar, given the amount of flavour it has and how common it is in recipes. Maybe there was a reason? I'd be really interested to know
I love you and your recipes sound wonderful. They also sound relatively easy to make and that’s incredibly helpful and inspiring. I think that I can make some of the favorite dishes of the Queen makes me feel wonderful.
I am SO happy I discovered your channel. Delicious recipes… and you and Winston are adorable! Already purchased one cookbook (loving it) and about to order another. Thank you, Chef!
I didn't know that you could keep banana bread for weeks in the fridge! In Australia we usually put walnuts in, but not dried fruit. I make a gluten free one, from a packet. I will eventually try making it from scratch so it's more natural (without the fake banana 'natural' flavouring. Really enjoying your videos! Thanks! *Say hi to Winston for me.
My last banana bread was an experiment where I used 1/4 cup of dark brown sugar and 1/2 cup of Lakota monkfruit sweetener which actually shows erythritol before the monkfruit. It actually came out really good, in fact my wife, not a fan of banana bread, loved it! My daughter is a vegan and for her I would not use the eggs but 1/4 cup of unsweetened apple sauce instead. It tends to leave a moister denser bottom but equally delicious!
Sigh...what is the English compultien of putting nasty dried fruit in everything? Even a posh wedding cake is fruit cake! Gack!🤢 It's even a common joke in this country to give someone a fruitcake at Christmas! Like, must not like them very much. Or, substituting fruitcake for bricks or boat anchors. Ick! I don't get it.🤔
Winston need to be a REAL dog! Ever watched Cooking with Dog? It is a Japanese cooking show web series which premiered on RUclips on September 9, 2007. The show features a Japanese woman known only as "Chef" who prepares the featured dish of the episode while her toy poodle Francis (via voiceover) narrates the process. While Chef speaks in Japanese, Francis narrates the episodes in English. Francis has since passed away. The chef makes some really amazing dishes Japanese as well as international dishes.
Thanks for sharing this recipe. It turned out moist, soft and delicious. Adding cherries was a good idea. I swapped the walnuts with pecan nuts as I had run out of walnuts, but it still tasted great.
Banana bread looks really good 👍 I will have to try this recipe. I tried your shortbread recipe It was amazing. I made It as a gift for my Son, as he loves shortbread. It went down a treat. Thank you for sharing your lovely recipes. Valerie.

I add walnuts and dark chocolate chips...YUM!
I never made one i always buy
I add blue berries to mine sometimes.

That "banana counter" edit made me laugh like an insane goat😂😭😂😭😂😭
The emergency banana bread
This is one of my favourite comfort foods. I was surprised to learn it could keep so long! Hooray! Stay safe. 🇨🇦🙋♀️🤗
i believe there is a mistake he said you can keep it in the fridge for 3 months but actually its the FREEZER that you can keep it for 3 months
