Banana Bread Loaf or Muffins Recipe:

Serving size: 1 loaf or muffins

Ingredients:


  • Butter, for coating the pan

  • 375 g overripe bananas (appx. 3 bananas)

  • 180g Coconut sugar or Rapadura

  • 1½ tsp pure vanilla extract

  • 2 large eggs

  • 100 g bubbly, active sourdough starter

  • 250g organic spelt flour

  • ½ tsp baking soda

  • 1 tsp cream tar tar

  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt (omit if using salted butter)

  • 125g melted butter

  • 60ml full fat milk


Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan assisted)

  2. Lightly coat one 9×5-inch loaf pan or muffin tins with butter.

  3. Add the bananas, sugar, and vanilla to a bowl. Mix well by hand, some banana lumps are ok.

  4. Add the eggs, one at a time until fully incorporated. Add the sourdough starter. Mix together.

  5. Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Working in batches, add this to the banana mixture.

  6. Add the milk and melted butter and mix until just combined. Do not over do it; the banana bread can become tough.

  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s).

  8. Bake for 35-45 minutes (for the muffins) or 45- 50minutes (for the standard 9×5-inch pan) for the pan be sure to cover with foil half way to prevent burning, bake until rich golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

  9. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

  10. Enjoy!
