Banana Bread

Eloise,2014

  • Prep time: 10 minutes
  • Cook time: 1 hour
  • Yield: Makes one loaf.
 
 
No need for a mixer for this recipe! Clean-up is easy too, if you want, you can mix everything in one bowl.
The best bananas to use for banana bread are those that are over-ripe. The yellow peels should be at least half browned, and the bananas inside  squishy and browning.

Ingredients

  • 2-3 very ripe bananas, peeled
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup of sugar (can easily use 3/4 cup, or drop it down to 1/2 cup if you want it less sweet)
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), and butter a 4x8-inch loaf pan.
  • In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Stir the melted butter into the mashed bananas.
  • Mix in the baking soda and salt. Stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Mix in the flour.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes (check at 50 minutes) at 350°F (175°C), or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and cool completely on a rack. Remove the banana bread from the pan. Slice and serve. (A bread knife helps to make slices that aren't crumbly.)

TASH'S

One the 22nd of June I went to celebrate a friend's birthday celebration. My friends recommended we go to a restaurant called Tash's. I really did not know the way their food taste or even how the restaurant looks. I went onto the Internet and did some research on the restaurant to find out the kind of food they sold at their store. http://www.tashascafe.com/.

The only places I know I can get Tash's in Gauteng is Brooklyn and Rosebank. I really enjoyed the food. They have sandwiches, salads, meat, sushi and alcohol.

 I would recommend Tash's for dates with friends or your partner.

Here is the website menu for Tash's Melrose Arch
