A while ago I posted a recipe for Instant Banana Bread. Here's a slightly more complicated version. It's verging on too complicated for me but I have a really low tolerance for complicated recipes. This still qualifies as simple and in the "lazy chef" category. You can make as little or much as you want, which is what I like about it because I would be too tempted by a full loaf of banana bread.
Ingredients:
some manna bread, multigrain is good.
some sliced ripe banana
some dates pitted
shot of vanilla (1/4-1/2 tsp depending on taste and how much bread you are making)
sprinkle of cinnamon (1/8-1/4 tsp)
Here's everything in a bowl:
Grind it up in a food processor. Smash into a pan. I didn't make much so my bread is going to be sideways--it's only about 1/3" thick in this pan:
Bake in the oven. Here's where I wasn't sure what to do. I did about 300 degrees for about 15-20 minutes. I wasn't trying to cook it, just heat it and dry it out a bit so it would be more bread like. I cut this into 3 pieces that looked like slices of banana bread! It was pretty good. Let me know if you try this and like it or have suggestions for improving it.
