going bananas.

Day three of cabin fever equals going bananas! Yes, a third day of working from home due to ice/snow… I believe Gwen Stefani said it best when she sang, “This is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S!” I had a bunch of leftover bananas since I’ve been snacking on sweet treats instead of fruit this week and it turns out I had all the ingredients to make some Going Bananas Due to Cabin Fever Banana Bread aka Banana Bread for short! 🙂

And I got to use my fabulous ice blue mixer, which made the baking a complete snap! This bread makes for a delicious breakfast treat or afternoon snack since it isn’t overly sweet and is a fabulous complement to a mug of coffee or tea.

Need:
4 bananas
1 applesauce cup
1.3 cups oat flour
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon Earth Balance butter
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
Oven at 350 degrees

Hollyized Steps:

First, gather all ingredients to make the prep fast and easy.

Peel and add your bananas to the mixing bowl first. Then add all remaining ingredients.

Use the mixer’s flat beater to combine all ingredients. First set on stir and then gradually increase the speed. Mix until the batter is liquefied but you can still see banana chunks.

Coat the inside of a loaf pan with EVOO and then add the batter.

Then cover the loaf pan with foil and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 25 minutes.

Let the banana bread cool for about seven minutes and then time to eat! Serve it on a fun plate (I got this one at Michaels) to get in the sane and cozy spirit! You can see how moist and full of bananas this bread is! Enjoy a day at home and monkey around! 🙂
