Add Banana to Banana Bread Recipe
MARIEVE HERINGTON: Okay. So I've just finished mashing my first banana. Now, usually, I actually would pick bananas that are even riper than this, but today is Sunday. We're not having a Monday brunch, so I had to use these ones. So I'm going to actually rip that part off, 'cause that's no good there. 'Cause of course, the spottier the banana, the sweeter it's going to be. Throw that down. Break it into more manageable pieces. Just take a fork on just a regular old plate. I use to mash up if I-if my mom didn't make banana muffins; I used to mash up bananas like this and put it with plain yogurt when I was a kid after school for snack. So, you'll find that each banana will yield you about half a cup, and which is perfect because the recipe calls for, I don't even need to measure it, one cup. So I'm going to add that to the other wet ingredients that we just mixed. Put that in there. And we're going to finish off the wet ingredients with a very special ingredient. Got some leftover coffee from this morning, actually. I brewed a little extra for this reason. This, for some reason, coffee really amps up the flavor. And if you wanted to actually, another really good variation that I've done is the Kahlua. It just pumps up the volume of the banana flavor and it's completely imperceptible. You wouldn't know that there was coffee in here, but it makes a difference. So I added three tablespoons of that. And mix that altogether and we're going to set that aside for just one minute, 'cause we're going to do the dry ingredients next.
