Buttermilk Banana Bread
My mom has been making this delicious, moist buttermilk banana bread recipe for 30 years; it was a family favorite for breakfast!
Ingredients
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
1 ¼ cups white sugar
-
½ cup shortening
-
2 large eggs, beaten
-
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
½ cup buttermilk
Description
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a loaf pan.
-
Sift flour, baking soda, and cinnamon together in a bowl; set aside.
-
Beat sugar and shortening together in a separate large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in bananas and vanilla extract. Slowly beat in buttermilk, continually beating, until smooth. Add flour mixture, continue beating until smooth; pour into the prepared loaf pan.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing from the pan; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
