‘The
hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread’
<Mother Teresa>
I believe that it’s impossible to live without bread.
Though, as for me it’s impossible to survive a day without sweets as well, therefore
I thought I might combine these two things together. And I think I mentioned it
before; I am going to share the wonderful recipe of banana bread. This simple bread recipe came
from my favorite blogger Beata
(probably my inspiration as well).
Unfortunately, her posts are in Lithuanian and so are her cook books. But going back to my recipe, it is slightly
changed, since I like to interpret the recipes my way. Also, make sure you don’t
“overdose” of bananas, because it might turn out to be baked bananas only. I caught
myself enjoying this pie with a glass of milk, but it goes perfect with ice
cream or whipped cream, try experimenting a little!
BANANA
BREAD
Ingredients:
·
125g unsalted butter;
· 200g sugar (Using brown sugar helps to improve the taste a lot);
·
2 medium eggs;
·
200g flour;
·
4-5 medium sized bananas;
·
A splash of lemon juice (makes bananas brighter after baking);
·
1,5 tsp. of baking soda;
·
2 tsp. of cinnamon;
·
0,5 tsp. cloves (But I didn’t use them, because I don’t like the taste it makes, however
if you have a taste for that put it in).
1. Pre-heat
the oven to 200oC;
2. Melt
the butter, however don’t let it over heat or start boiling, then take the
bananas and mash them;
3. Let
the butter chill, and while you are waiting take the eggs and mix them with the
sugar;
4. Add
the butter to the sugar and eggs mix and add the butter there and bananas;
5. Then
mix the flour, baking soda and cinnamon with cloves into separate bowl, and add
all of that to the banana mix;
6. Grease
the pan with the butter or use baking paper on the bottom of the pan, so the
pie won’t stick, pour the pie and put it to the oven!
ENJOY THE PIE!
