Banana Bread - the sequel

Awhile back I took a stab at making the recipe for banana bread that my grandmother gave me. The result was delicious, but more like banana cake.  I really wanted a recipe that I could make and not feel guilty about eating for breakfast. Something with not as much sugar and more banana.  Here's my result.  I generally make this in a loaf pan, but you can also bake them as muffins.

Ingredients
  • 2 cups flour 
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, soft
  • 3/4 cups brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 ripe bananas

Directions
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix dry ingredients in small bowl and set aside.
  • Whip bananas in mixer 3 to 5 mins til fluffy, transfer to another bowl and set aside.
  • In same bowl, cream butter and sugar til fluffy.  Add in eggs, one at a time.
  • Add bananas til blended
  • Add dry ingredients to wet
  • Pour into greased loaf pan and bake 45 to 50 mins.
