Steps

  • 1

    Move oven rack to low position so that tops of pans will be in center of oven. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottoms only of 2 loaf pans, 8 1/2x4 1/2x2 1/2 inches, or 1 loaf pan, 9x5x3 inches.

  • 2

    Mix sugar, applesauce and margarine in large bowl. Stir in egg product until well blended. Add bananas, buttermilk and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt just until moistened. Stir in nuts. Pour into pans.

  • 3

    Bake 8-inch loaves about 1 hour, 9-inch loaf about 1 1/4 hours, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Loosen sides of loaves from pans; remove from pans and place top side up on wire rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour, before slicing. Wrap tightly and store at room temperature up to 4 days, or refrigerate up to 10 days.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1

    Mini Banana Breads make great gifts! To make, grease bottoms only of 10 miniature loaf pans, 4 1/2x2 3/4x1 1/4 inches. Divide batter among pans (about 1/2 cup each). Bake 30 to 35 minutes.
  • tip 2

    Stir 1/4 cup miniature or regular chocolate chips into the batter for mouthwatering flavor combinations.
  • tip 3

    A fat-free glaze makes this quick bread even more irresistible! Mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar with about 2 teaspoons fat-free (skim) milk. Drizzle over warm bread.
  • tip 4

    Rise to the occasion! If using self-rising flour, there is no need to add baking soda and salt.
  • tip 5

    Don’t worry about “cracking up.” A large, lengthwise crack in the thin, tender top crust of a quick bread is normal.
