Banana Bread:
Preheat oven 350?F. Sift flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl and set aside. Mash bananas in separate bowl. With a fitted paddle in a stand mixer, beat sugar and eggs for 3-5 minutes. Add in oil and mashed bananas and mix until just incorporated. Then mix in sour cream and vanilla. Slowly add in dry ingredients – don’t over mix.
Prepare each cavity with baking spray with flour. Fill each mini loaf cavity ¾ full and add desired toppings from below*. Bake 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean and the loaves are golden brown. Makes about 8-9 mini loaves
Topping options:
Chocolate Chunk & Almonds
Sprinkle on top of batter in cavities before baking.
Cinnamon Streusel Topping:
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- ¼ cup toasted and chopped pecans (optional)
Melt butter and let it cool slightly. Mix in all other ingredients. Sprinkle on top of batter in cavity before baking.
Candied Oranges + Glaze
Candied Oranges
We used store-bought from Trader Joes but could make candied oranges from scratch as well.
Orange Glaze Ingredients
- ½ cup powder sugar
- Pinch of grated orange zest
- 1 Tbsp juice from an orange
If making candied oranges from scratch, prepare desired recipe. If using store-bought, add candied slices to top of loaf batter before baking.
Mix all glaze ingredients together in a small bowl. Drizzle over cooled candied orange loaves once ready.
