Banana Something Something Bread | elwing's Blog

 This... Was more than a bit of an experiment, LOL, but dang. I'm sure glad it turned out alright! OK... So I wanted to make banana bread, right? But, I only had ONE banana. The recipe I had called for FIVE. Egads! With the store 20+ miles away, I wasn't about to make a run just for bananas! So I got creative... We had some applesauce... Some trail mix, with dried fruit and nuts in it... And a blender. So... Here's how the recipe went...

2 cups all purpose flour

1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/8 teaspoon ground clove

2 eggs, beaten

1 ripe banana, two handfulls of trail mix, and aproximately 3/4 a cup of applesauce, worked through the blender to come out to 1 & 1/2 cup fruity/nutty mixture

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup cooking oil

Preheat oven to 350. Grease bottom and sides of 9x5x3 pan, set aside. Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl, moist ingredients in a small bowl. Once moist ingredients are thuroughly mixed, add to dry mixture and use electric mixer to MIX WELL. The stuff should be soupy, but not quite as soupy as say, cupcake batter. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
