THE BEST BANANA BREAD
Any banana bread fans out there? Until about 10 years ago, I was not. Usually, banana bread is full of nuts (not hating on nuts, just don’t like them in my bread) or it didn’t taste very much like bananas. So I skipped it.
When our kids were young, I found myself buying bananas every week but, inevitably, one would end up overripe by the end of the week and nobody would touch it. It would end up in the garbage or I’d pitch it in the compost bin. I know bananas are not expensive, but one a week for a year is a lot of bananas. I started chucking them in the freezer to see if maybe I could figure out something to do with them and I came back to banana bread.
I started looking for recipes that sounded extra banana-ee. I found one that I thought would be good, so I thawed the bananas to use in the recipe, and, to my surprise, the bananas were broken down and watery. Not good. So I had an idea. What if I took the super watery bananas and cooked them down to evaporate out some of the liquid? I could add more bananas to the recipe for more banana-ee flavor and get some room back in my freezer. Win-Win!
