Banana Buttermilk Nut Bread

Buttermilk Banana Bread

A banana buttermilk nut bread recipe that is made with sugar, eggs, bananas, chopped nuts and fresh buttermilk.

This easy banana bread recipe is special because the buttermilk inside makes a very moist delicious bread.

The aroma of fresh baked banana bread will surely get those late sleepers up and moving on the weekend. Serve for breakfast or brunch.

This quick bread recipe is also a great way to use up those over ripe bananas that would otherwise get thrown out.

Don't forget about the jam and preserves for your breakfast table! Jams, preserves, and ice cream sundae toppings are available at my online store The Topping Shoppe. What a great gift idea!

This recipe is from my grandmother's recipe box collection.

Ingredients:

2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter (at room temperature)
2 eggs, beaten
1 Tablespoon lemon Juice
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 cup mashed bananas (about 2 extra ripe bananas)
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2: Grease and flour 9" x 5" x 3" loaf baking pan.

Step 3: In a medium bowl, cream the sugar and butter until smooth.

Step 4: Add beaten eggs, lemon juice, and buttermilk and stir to incorporate.

Step 5: Stir the banana mash into the wet mixture and mix well.

Step 6: In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.

Step 7: Gradually add to the wet mixture in small amounts until full incorporated. Do not overmix.

Step 8: Fold in chopped nuts.

Step 9: Place the banana bread batter in a greased baking pan and bake for 1 hour.

**To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf 5 minutes before baking time is over. When the toothpick comes out clean, the bread is done. You can also visually check if the bread is done by looking for a nice medium brown color and also checking that the banana buttermilk nut bread has pulled away from the edges of the baking pan.
