Recipe 13 - Banana Bread

Thanks to Mohana for the idea (well, the idea was seeded way back in 2007) & the recipe. I finally got around to making it, thanks to my collar bone fracture! :)

Ingredients (serves about 4 people):
4 very ripe bananas mashed
1 egg - beaten
1/3 cup ghee (or oil/butter/buttermilk)
1.5 cups flour
0.5 c sugar or 0.25 c honey
0.5 cup walnuts

1. Beat one whole egg

2. Chop 1/2 cup of walnuts (you can do it with the hands) and add it to the beaten egg

3. Add 1/3 cup honey & 1/4 cup honey (a little more if you like it really sweet) to the above mix

4. Pre-heat oven to 350F

5. Add 4 ripe bananas mashed (the ghee will aid the mixing)

6. Add 1.5 cup slowly in parts while mixing it at the same time to ensure all the flour gets mixed thoroughly

7. Grease a pan with oil (the batter/dough will not rise, so you can estimate the pan size depending on the amount of batter)

8. Pour batter in the pan and bake it for 1hr

Preparation time - 1hr, Baking time - 1hr

The suspense and the smell while the bread was baking was exciting. Good experience!!
