Individual banana loaves

Individual banana loaves are a delightful treat, perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert. These loaves are moist, flavorful, and incredibly easy to make. With just a handful of ingredients, you'll have delicious banana bread that everyone will love.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
1 cup self-raising flour
150g
1/2 cup sugar
100g
2 eggs
100g
2 bananas
240g
1 cup powdered sugar
160g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a muffin or mini loaf pan with paper liners.
2. Prepare the Banana Mixture:
- Peel and mash the bananas in a bowl until smooth. Set aside.
3. Cream the Butter and Sugar:
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
4. Add Eggs:
- Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Ensure the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
5. Incorporate Bananas:
- Stir in the mashed bananas until evenly mixed.
6. Add Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the self-raising flour to the wet mixture. Fold in gently using a spatula or a wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
7. Fill the Pan:
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin or mini loaf pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. This allows room for the loaves to rise.
8. Bake:
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a loaf comes out clean.

9. Cool:
- Remove the pan from the oven and let the loaves cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Prepare the Glaze:
- In a medium bowl, gradually add water to the powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon at a time, until you achieve a thick, but drizzly, consistency.
11. Glaze the Loaves:
- Once the loaves are completely cool, drizzle the powdered sugar glaze over the tops. Allow the glaze to set before serving.
12. Serve:
- Enjoy your individual banana loaves as a delightful snack or dessert!

Tips:

- For an extra moist loaf, use overripe bananas.

- You can add a handful of chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter for added texture and flavor.

- Ensure that all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing for a smoother batter.

- Store the loaves in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to three days.

Enjoy these delicious individual banana loaves with a cup of coffee, tea, or as a comforting treat any time of the day. Their light, moist texture and the natural sweetness of bananas make them a hit with both kids and adults.
