This is not a very good picture of this bread AT ALL, my camera is having issues at the moment but you better believe I'll be making this bread again next week with some better pics : )
Bakery Style Banana Bread
Well one of my readers sent me this email and banana bread recipe that has completely converted me over to this recipe! Now don't get me wrong, I still love me some old school banana bread but this moist banana bread recipe taste just like the kind you get from a bakery; super soft, moist, light & dense all at the same time! The banana flavor is incredible and the freezer tip really does make this banana bread out of this world moist!
Hello Monique,
I made your old fashioned banana bread & it is truly is old fashioned! I mean that in a good way. It taste exactly the way I remember my mother making it. I will for sure be adding this recipe to my family cookbook for when I am craving some good old fashion banana bread.
However I do believe I hold the recipe to the best banana bread of all time (smile) It comes from my neighbor who made me a batch of this bread when I was under the weather. I've tasted and made plenty of banana breads in my day, and this recipe is by far the BEST banana bread ever. I promise! Everyone who I have made this bread for says it's the best, even a local bakery with a trained baker begged me for this recipe!
I would love for you to give it a try when you have time and if you like it, feel free to share it with your readers. I am 61 and love your blog and have been reading since I found it on google! I guess I still have some diva in me. Thanks so much for sharing your recipes. They are so delicious and I love seeing more young women getting into scratch-made cooking!

2 1/8 cups sugar
3 large eggs

Step 3.) In a large bowl, cream butter & sugar until fluffy.
Step 4.) Add in eggs, one at a time & then add in vanilla
Step 5.) Beat in the flour mixture alternating it with the buttermilk.
Step 6.) Stir in the banana mixture
Step 7.)Pour batter into two greased & flour loaf pans & bake in oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Step 8.) Remove from oven and place directly into freezer to cool for about 20-30 minutes. This will make the bread incredibly moist.
