Birthday Banana Bread


Colin made a request for banana bread, so I figured that it would be the perfect breakfast to start the celebration of his 29th birthday!

One Pan Banana Bread

1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 3-4)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
2 1/3 cup Bisquick
1 cup sugar
(I also added some pecans)

Preheat oven to 350. Generously grease the bottom of a loaf pan. Stir all ingredients in a bowl with a fork until moistened; beat vigorously for 1 minute. Pour into prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 55-60 minutes.

Colin usually likes his banana bread with plain old butter, but I also made some maple whipped cream to go with the bread and it was really tasty!

1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon pure maple sugar
1 pinch nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Combine all ingredients and beat until soft peaks form.
