Mom’s Moist Banana Bread

Mom's Banana Bread Recipe!

This is one of my favourite recipes from my childhood. I really like mom's recipe because it's moist. She co-stars in the recipe video!

It's not the typical recipe I post on my website. Normally my recipes are high in protein and low in sugar. But this recipe would be great for your daily discretionary calories.

p.s. I made a "healthy" version of banana bread...you can click here for that recipe (but mom's is better!)

Preheat Your Oven

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F if you are using a glass pan. Otherwise 350 degrees F.

I strongly recommend you watch the video recipe. There are a lot of secret tricks that mom shares. Plus, it's funny!

1. Cream together the butter (melted in microwave 30 seconds) and sugar
2. Add 2 lightly beaten (with spoon) eggs and mashed ripe bananas (fork) to the above creamed mixture and mix again.
3. Add in the flour, baking soda & salt and mix the entire batter with a spoon.

My Way of Eating

I love food. Especially banana bread!

As an intermittent faster, I skip breakfast, and enjoy eating in the afternoon and evening. This works well for me because I don't like eating breakfast in the morning (it makes me feel nauseous), and I'm more relaxed at night (so I digest better). I also enjoy eating carbs!
