Banana Bread

We are having some real cold days in Madrid and all I want to do is curl up with my computer, books, and cook the winter classics.

So here is a pretty good recipe, perfect for winter days, that I got down at a Thanksgiving party in Madrid this fall. The girl who gave it to me said it was jewish!
I don't think there is anything really jewish about it, but it is quite good and super easy....for a long time I have looked for a banana bread recipe for dummies, that you just can't spoil, and really, it's very difficult to mess this one up.


Ingredients:

1. One cup and 1/4 of flour, or 125grs.
2. Two eggs.
3. 1 loaded teaspoon of baking powder (levadura)
4. 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
5. 1/4 cup of sugar, or 4 spoonful.
6. 4 spoonful of margarine
or 1/4 cup.
6. 3 small bananas or 2 big ones.
7. A cup of walnuts o un buen puñado.

STEPS:

1. Mix the flour, eggs, baking soda, salt, and sugar. It becomes a really thick paste.
2. Add the bananas to the mix. The softer the bananas are the better.
3. Add the walnuts.
4. Grease the "baking tray", with butter and then sprinkle with flour.
5. On to the oven for 30 mins or 35, at 180 degrees, only button rack!!! not grill!

That's it!  Enjoy. I used this "molde de corona", because it distributes the heat very evenly but maybe you could try another type of baking container and let me know how it went.

 What do you think? I think this recipe is a keeper. I brought it the other day to my friend's dinner and they loved it :)
