Banana Nut Bread Recipe
This is a classic batter bread recipe that uses over-ripe bananas to create a creamy texture and a burst of banana flavor. Like most batter breads this recipe calls for the use of baking soda and baking powder instead of yeast. The bread rises as it bakes. We’re going to use the Pizza dough setting for this bread because we’re going to finish it in the oven, and batter breads don’t need the rising cycle in the bread machine that you would get with the standard dough setting. This bread makes a great dessert and also goes great with tea at tea-time or with coffee at breakfast. Kids love the soft and creamy texture and it’s wonderful with a small pat of soft butter. Like all batter breads you won’t see the traditional dough ball in the bread machine, but rather a batter like consistency. That’s okay and to be expected.
