Bisquick Banana Bread Recipe
Description
This banana bread recipe starts by mashing 2 to 3 ripe bananas and combining them with sugar, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla, and eggs. Cinnamon and Bisquick mix are added to form a batter with the right consistency. Chopped walnuts can be folded in for added texture. The batter is poured into a sprayed 9x5x3 inch loaf pan and baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 to 60 minutes, checking doneness with a clean toothpick.
The resulting bread is moist and tender, thanks to the bananas and careful mixing that avoids overworking the batter. The Bisquick mix provides the leavening and crumb structure without the need for yeast.
This quick bread can be served sliced for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. It accepts variations like chocolate chips or dried fruit mixed in to customize flavor. Mini loaves or muffins can be made by dividing the batter, adjusting baking times accordingly.
Careful mixing helps retain moisture and tenderness, while the loaf pan size ensures even baking.
Ingredients
- 2-3 banana 1 1/3 cups
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 egg
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 2/3 cups Bisquick
- 1/2 cup walnuts chopped
Instructions
- Spray a loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray, ensuring it is evenly coated. Then, set the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to preheat it.
- Take a mixing bowl and mash the bananas until they are smooth.
- Add the sugar, milk, oil, vanilla, and eggs to the bowl. Mix these ingredients thoroughly.
- Add the cinnamon and Bisquick baking mix to the bowl, stirring until well combined.
- If you use chopped walnuts or another mix-in, gently fold them into the mixture.
- Pour the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 45-60 minutes. To check if it's done, insert a toothpick into the center of the bread; if it comes out clean, the bread is ready.
- Let the bread cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes. Then remove it from the pan and put it on a wire rack to finish cooling.
Notes
- Use a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan or divide batter into three mini loaf pans for smaller portions.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to maintain moistness and tenderness in the bread.
- Customize by adding chocolate chips, dried fruit, or other nuts such as macadamia.
- To make muffins, place batter in muffin tins and reduce baking time to 15-20 minutes.
